That Boyish Smile

O, the love of pure heart's passion
    thrumming wildly beneath his blouse

  What he lacks in words, he makes up in action
    then look ~ that boyish smile of satisfaction

Fun Couplets, Gershon. True and brought a smile to my face. Thanks for sharing, my friend. Bill

Hi G, I am suffering from intellectual stupidity. The word blouse threw me, In all my decades on earth, I never saw a boy in a blouse. Unless he is a part of the Pride Movement … which was not around till lately nor were boys running around in crop tops Pangie

Duh, being an Alumnus of Loyola, I actually studied Shakespeare. But I got lost on the one. Apologies. Denseoid Pangie.

Nah... But decades, shmekades... 'blouse' and 'shirt' were used more interchangeably by authors of the 18th and 19th centuries, both French and English. (Dickens, for example... Shakespeare too in the 17th century). Not to worry about such trifles, please. ~ gw
