Man Bait

Oh don't think that I ain't seein As you roll them purty eyes And my man stands there a gogglin Like he'd won some sorta prize. My ma taught me aplenty How to keep that man of mine And how to reel him back in When he gets too long a line. You'll be feelin mighty foolish When I cut you down to size, For there ain't no man worth keepin Can resist my apple pies. ( Entered in slang contest

Great work, Joyce! I love both the concept and the execution. Had a great laugh at the end. If I send you my address, will you send an apple pie to me? Women like them too. I do love the way you stood up to this flirt in your poem. A strong, wise, woman! Love, Carolyn
