When Colors Collide

I dated Mary Browne from out of town
 She was a lovely lass.
 She'd auburn hair and freckles and a perky little ass .
 The donkey carried her to Sunday school
 And all seemed well and bright.
 The lads were green with envy , especially Parson White .
 But big Bob Gray , on that fateful day
 Said ; " WOW !!!, she'd grace my bed.
 As he thrust his lusty hand at her,the poor girl turned bright red.
 Her ass was having none of this,
 He heehawed ... heehawed... " Don't dare " !!!
 And with a flick , lashed out a kick
 Now Bob Gray is gone much greyer .
 His eyes are now  pink bloodshot .
 His groin is black and blue .
 But now he sings soprano , from the very last church pew .
 Then Sheriff Green came on the scene
 Not knowing what to  do 
 Said "never mind , I'm colour blind , can't tell my pink from blue.
 My amber , mauve or lilac could be torquise , white or brown ,
 So saddle up your donkey and get your ass out of my town".




For  Olajide's color blindness contest .

hahahahaha. It's pure nonsense, but I think it is the only time I chucked more than once reading any poem tonight (and believe me, I've been here a long time catching up on three days of comments) . It was sure nice to see you writing a new poem. thanks for the 'super granny" just so folks still think I am the MOM instead of the granny, that's all that counts!!!
