Motionless Devotion - Sequel To Motion In Devotion

Nights of lovin' grew wilder and bolder Like riding upon a roller coaster Till fed up one night, the dear lady said "Please get a carpet for beneath this bed." "Oh why's that then pet" her hubby replied A beaming smile on his face a mile wide "Don't you enjoy having a slippy-slide" The grin slowly beginning to subside. "It's when we reach up to them dizzy heights I get to see blinding flashes of lights Making me giddy and queasy as well It's fast becoming an almighty hell." Dreaming of some magical carpet rides Flying over the highways of the skies Hubby instantly granted the wife's plea And bought a carpet spontaneously. Pleased with himself and feeling rather smug He'd be bringing back the wife's mood for love Wild images came to mind thick and fast Even envisioned getting carpet rash. Came the day that the new carpet was laid And what a price the poor hubby had paid No more frolicking around the bedroom 'Twas end of a long romantic honeymoon. The music had died, the nights they drew dim Hubby's hopeful dreams were fast getting slim Wife's passion had gone away with the wind Yet, she loved her carpet above all things.
