My Kind of Woman

My Kind Of Woman 



Now," Lavish" is expensive
'Cause she loves to wine and dine
And going out with "Showy"
Sure won't save me any dimes
"Adorned", is always stunning
But She always wants to shop
Like "Pretentious and Ornate"
They'll spend my money 'til they drop
Now "Leisure" likes her comfort
But it's me that pays the bill
And " Ostentatious " in a second 
Can make me promise that you will 
"Gaudy", she's amusing
But I'll tell, she's no joke
In the morning when she leaves you
She'll surely leave me broke
Elaborate and Embellished
Will spend my savings with both hands
And when they're through with me
They will find another man
But there's one kind of woman
That I'm sure was made for me
She calls herself just "Fancy" 
And we all know, "Fancy's Free".

Hello Jerry, Dropping by for a read. Ah, yes -- I agree, "Fancy Free" is the way to go!! Best always to dodge the others!! Another gem-of-a-write, Sir!! I always enjoy your humor very much. Continued Best Wishes, and thanks for commenting on a couple of my recent poems. Cheers, Gary (A SEVEN IT IS!!)
