Notes About The Poem

 

 

My Bawdy Valentine

That week was the farmer’s convention Their ladies at home sought attention Twas Valentine’s night Thought I’d do alright I had quite a naughty intention The farmer’s young wife caught my eye She hid my car keys; I asked why She said, sounding flirty, “D’ya wanna get dirty? Your car keys are in the pig-sty.” I was told she’s an outrageous flirt When I told her she looked pretty hurt She said, “It’s a lie they tell because I… have got nothing on under my skirt.” I said, “Let’s have a drink and then dine.” She said, “Dry White would go down just fine.” “A Large one?” I asked She said, “Boy! You’re fast, Can you wait till I’ve finished my wine?” If I thought I was in for some fun I was shocked when my plan came undone The farmer returned My backside was burned I won’t say where he pointed his gun

Thanks, Ilene. I did take a wild punt that I’d get away with 5 limericks for Tania’s contest, but I always knew I was chancing my arm so withdrew it. scratching my head for a new attempt.

I guess it proves that pigs don’t eat literally ANYTHING.

Deputy Terry, these are all SO very funny... but I think Tania only wants one entered. These are too good to separate them. Why don't you just write another one?

Ok. They’re all so good. I didn’t want you to get an N/A.

I was of that opinion too, Lin and was going to isolate verse four for the contest. Maybe ill do just that… unless something else pops into my head ;-)
