Notes About The Poem

Singles Night

Ron desperately wanted to have a girlfriend He’d looked after his old mum right till the end Ron was a tall and extremely attractive guy Unfortunately poor Ron was so terribly shy He saw a poster in a window for a single’s night There’d be lots of ladies, it seemed just right He phoned the organiser, her name was Eva She’d greet him at the door; he couldn’t wait to meet her Eva smiled when she saw Ron’s handsome face with her skin-tight dress he baulked at her embrace Her huge breasts looked like two bald headed men He extracted himself; so he could breathe again! Tables for two were set up around the room Scented candles gave off a lovely perfume Ron sat down at a table in search of a date Would he be lucky and meet his soul mate? Big Beryl sat down; she had such bad halitosis She covered her mouth hoping Ron wouldn’t notice The moment she spoke poor Ron got a foul blast When their time was up; Ron moved seats - fast! Then next he met Ann; she was obsessed with her pussy He would only eat Whiskas; her Tom was ever so fussy But any hope of romance they had to defer As Ron had an allergy to animal fur Butch Bertha said she preferred women to guys Ron thought it a pity as she had such lovely eyes Her mother had forced her to go out that night They both agreed a date just wouldn’t be right Mavis nervously sat down, she was painfully thin From the smell of her breath, she’d been hitting the gin She said she’d had a tipple to steady her nerves And she’d got her hip flask if she needed reserves! Ron began to think speed dating contrary Then a beauty arrived, her name was Mary Pretty in pink she stood out from the crowd She was shy and demure and she wasn’t too loud Ron hesitantly asked Mary if he could give her a call And their very first date was at the local dance hall At the end of the night they shared their first kiss Now they’re happily married and life is just bliss 09-27-17

You could have gone on and on about the horrible possible dates that Ron could have had, there are many kinds of wrong fits to a shy man who is allergic to animal fur! This never happened to me, I always found my dates while just being out in public, or being with a friend of a friend sort of thing! I surely loved this incredible poem this morning my friend! What a grand piece Jan, Great Work!!
