Springtime Romance Contest

Going out on a date calling around at nine We are to wrap up warm no high  heels this time Dressed in thick sweaters trainers on our feet We drove to the river a boat was waiting looking sleek Jumped aboard and off  to go wind in the sails so strong Heading for an island when everything went wrong Wind dropped sail  hanging limp nothing we could do  Looked at each other with smouldering looks, both knew How we ended up on a bunk not sure that's true But know when we made love our minds just blew Spring is in the air so the saying  goes Know how those rabbits feel with libidos all aglow Peeping out of the porthole just looked  and stared The boat had drifted to the island where a hamper had been prepared Picnicked with a blanket on the ground, had bubbly up my nose Ate smoked salmon with rye, dozed dreamily rubbing my toes It has been a lovely day though not quite what we had in mind Think spring is our favourite season with summer not far behind. 21/02/2013
