I'm no grump
nor one to dump
let alone mock
but I can't like or lump
a pudgy frump
in a frock
who my world don't shock
yet here's the kicker
as a chick
she'd be slicker
and not to deride
but if she'd lose a few
a pound or two
the sooner the quicker
on either side
she'd be bodacious
I'd be flirtatious
and we'd roll and rock
around the clock
you reach with clinging desires
and drunken temptations
brightly flourished promises
wrapped 'round petite
virgin white pleasures
yet trust hesitates around
too much beauty
hidden midst other scents
emotional flytraps while
Venus blushes
knowing if she waits
her hugs will be too painful
to escape
'Bout to get bodacious, baby.
'Bout to be so voracious, sweetie.
Betty Barbara Bailey borrowed a bright blue bather from from Benny B. Brooks
bathroom bashful Betty wore a bright blue biodegradable bikini for
Benny B. Brooks , who was actually Betty Barbara Bailey ,
a big, beautiful, bodacious, booty-licious boy/girl .

I asked her
Do I make you feel Beautiful.
She answered yes
I asked
Do you think?
That I'm very Observant to you
Your feelings, wants, and needs
Yes I do is what she said
So I asked
Do you know how much I Desire You?
She said yes
Do you think that I Adore you?
She answered yes
I asked her
Do you have any idea about?
How much I love your beautiful Curves
She answered yes
Then I said to her
I'm very much in love with how Intelligent you are
I cherish every moment and Opportunity
That we shared just being Us
So I asked
Do you know?
How much being with you Satisfies me?
And once again she answered yes
I then replied
I Love you and Thank You for being
B.O.D.A.C.I.O.U.S.
Move through a sieve
Of memories,
Spilling like shards of glass,
Cutting into my soul.
