Niceties Have Become More Rare

Looking for a real sensitive soul Are there any left out there In this crazy fast paced age of computers Niceties have become more rare Except of course here on the Soup We all still care about love About thoughtfulness and tender wishes Sweet love words all else above We could teach this world how to love Us guys sure know the ropes All it takes are these three words plus two “Please allow me to grope” Ooops I guess I kinda destroyed the mood Got carried away for sure But I'm certain you got the general idea My naughtiness please ignore © Jack Ellison 2014

Don't worry we're used to naughty here. Tho Dragon's naughty in a different way, of course! Dragon became jealous when his penguins laid some eggs. He wanted to babysit them... in hopes of returning them to different parents. The penguins aren't fools and wouldn't let him close. So I told him the eggs are like favorite blanky's that they'll never put down, and that, he'd have more penguins when they hatch. So now, he's blinging out little blanky's with names he's picked, for each and every one.

Gee... Jack... You ask that to someone who talks about make believe Dragons and such... LOL... Actually... we're all just Ducky!... Ummm... Maybe we need a little ducky pet for Dragon's penguins! Cool!... Remember... I might be strange, but you read my comments... LOL
