Wined and Dined

There once was a lass in decline
who daily drank much too much wine
she rosed* up her lips
and plumped up her hips
but never got any of mine!

Yes, my bottle it remained corked
not guzzled by broads from New York
oh, pink, white or red
I’d hoard them instead
perhaps I let lose for the stork?

Men if you’d sip from my bottle... 
into bed, do rush, don’t dawdle
drink from my navel
if you are able
perform with game hold the throttle. 

* I know [rosed] is not a word ;) I'm being funny so I'm using my poetic license!
**ed's do not make a syllable ;)

Words are there to be bettered Debbie, and Rosed is no exception. Being "Wined and Dined" in this vein suits me just fine. Super Limerick series :)

I have no trouble with your rosed and for one who doesn't like limericks you do a stand up job. I am leaving a soup mail.

you were getting a bit down and dirty with that last part. You little hussie holding wine in your navel. hahaha. I hope this will do well for you, Deb. I too went the limerick route. (was it the only form she allowed? I can't keep track anymore, the contests are flying by us so quickly) Hope you got my hotmails today.Luv, Andrea

Good one, dear Debbie!!! Let's get together and have a glass of Cabernet :) By the way I like your interpretation of my poem "Purple Heart". Mine was different (when I wrote it)but both are very good! Love you, Iolanda :)

Great contest entry. I agree with Linda, the first word should be changed to "there". Very well written!
