Skinny Dipping

One fine day, as hot as Hades, Six respectable old ladies Decided they would take a trip Before the winter chill could nip. They drove out to the countryside With rolling hills and river wide. The place was quiet, full of charm, But, oh dear me, the weather warm. Gran became a trifle naughty Heat made her a little potty Decided she would take a chance You only have one life to dance. Removing both her diamond rings She cast off all her under things And dived into the swimming hole Then with a flash, the show she stole. This lady in her autumn years Was young at heart, for her, three cheers. The other ladies’ eyes, they popped. While with their hankies, brows they mopped. Then one declared, ‘It looks so cool.’ And all at once, a river full Of naked ladies having fun Beneath the hot and blazing sun.

"A hunter passing by..." There has to be a punch line after all that, no? Anyway, I'm happy for them. Fun poem.
