'miss-Behaving'

I’m sunbathing down on the beach
just tanning, I look quite a peach
I’m totally nude
Some find that so rude
It shocks all the kids that I teach!

This is a sweet peach of a poem, Jan, sunbathing in the nude is a bit too exposing for me, but I know lots of people in Europe do it (America is so stodgy about things like that!)

Jan Allison

June 6, 2020 at 3:39 PM

not something I would ever do but I know some folk are happy to bare all:-) hugs Jan xx

I like this Limerick Jan, and if not why not, fun in the sun! In Cape Town Sandy Beach our son took us for for a walk, it was a hot summer's day and everyone was sporting their newly operated size 36 boobs, a topless beach. We didn't stay too long! Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

I just heard on the BBC that May 2020 was the driest May in 120-years, so who could fathom you are NOT out basking under the sun? Peel off, and let the sun warm your bones! Aloha! Rico

Jan Allison

June 3, 2020 at 2:57 AM

You know me well Ilene lol:-) Hope hubby is doing well and you are coping with the current situation - things are improving here no new cases in 13 days so lock down is working for us - trouble is when the border is re opened we will be at risk once again, but with the virus still being rampant elsewhere it will be many months before that will happen. take care my friend:-) hugs Jan xx
