Mortified

I can't find my clothes, they have strayed away.
Naked and cold in the middle of day.
Strangers are laughing and rude,
I've no idea why I'm nude.
Let this be a bad dream, dear Lord, I pray.





For Johns's contest.  Nude dream  2nd place

Been there, dreamt that same dream. Gee, I wonder, do nudists have nightmares about being dressed? If so, then I think I know who's stealing our dream clothes! Congrats on you win Joyce
