Jean Murray Poet Verse

To Die For

Until I met my lucious lover
I was ambivalent about having another.
My last affair was bittersweet.
My arcane pain I kept discreet.

This one however is quintessence.
My desires awoken from quiescent.
Although I'm flamboyant, he makes me shy.
An intercessor I'll need, I know a guy.

He'll tell him how tactile I can be.
Sweet, loveable, passionate me.
If unsuccessful, I will consume libation.
Become an oblation by immolation.

Arthur Vaso October 29, 2016 at 7:31 PM As someone who has died a thousand deaths, I really enjoyed this poem! Very very well written! Jean Murray October 30, 2016 at 2:18 AM Now Arthur, don't you think 1,000 is enough?? You make those of us here who care for your welfare nervous. Especially me, a nurse...

Paloma P October 29, 2016 at 4:16 PM Whoa, you really utilized those words full steam ahead! A write full of moxie, you crazy vixen. :) Paloma P October 29, 2016 at 7:21 PM I think you wined and dined on a fella for dinner, literally. ha :) Jean Murray October 29, 2016 at 6:49 PM We were quiet at work today. When I read it out to my midwifery colleagues, we had a good laugh. When they asked me what it was about, I had to admit I didn't know.

Tim Smith October 29, 2016 at 12:31 PM Arthur told me not to tell : ) Arthur Vaso October 29, 2016 at 7:30 PM LOL I just served the libations!! Jean Murray October 29, 2016 at 2:00 PM What pray tell?? It's OK....just whisper.

Charlie Smith October 29, 2016 at 8:00 AM I could suggest a good 30 yr. old single malt...But I hope that's unnecessary. Best wishes Jean... Jean Murray October 29, 2016 at 8:03 AM If it's that good...maybe I could just die of inebriation Charlie?

Daniel Turner October 29, 2016 at 7:56 AM Very funny and clever, Jean. I always did love your sense of humor:) Jean Murray October 29, 2016 at 8:02 AM Thank you Daniel. I always have fun with these.
