Love Poetry a la carte
I thought:
why not write a love poem,
everyone is doing it,
how hard can it be?
First, I need a woman
(let's not drag my wife into this exercise),
a pet dog or cat perhaps.
Maybe some sexual content
(best to rule out the dog and cat).
Once I wrote about a certain flower
remarking upon its sprays of golden showers,
some smart ass wrote back asking
if I knew what the term 'golden showers' meant?
Got me thinking.
Probably need romantic sensitive moments
under moonlit glitzy stars -
pursed lips slurping up sticky passions.
What I got is a nice wife and a dopey-eyed dog,
just about enough I reckon.
