Premium Member South American Swinger

I once met a sultry girl from Ipanema Dancing in a South American cantina I stepped on her toes The least of her woes But quickly I departed for Argentina.

Premium Member Under Wraps

The waiter: short, surly and brusque; in the air, hung a slight scent of musk. Natasha’s Cantina: with Masa Harina, crime’s perfection, wrapped in a cornhusk. ---------- I promise I won't do another tamale

Premium Member Sabrina

     Writing you a poem for a first date
  With hopes of finding a soulmate

              We've both been alone awhile
      My plan is to make you smile

                     I believe this time
                       Will be sublime

          Like some love
              Sent from up above

      Dinner, movie maybe a cantina
   Where to take the lovely Sabrina?

Premium Member Frosty’s Vacation

Frosty really loved to travel you know,
but couldn't go to a place with no snow.
All his friends heard him chatter
"This is snow laughing matter!
Maybe Antarctica's where I should go!"

On the way south he saw a cantina
right at the bottom of Argentina;
and there he did manage
to take full advantage
of a sale on frozen Margaritas.

Frosty, by way of explanation,
vacationed at McMurdo Station.
He met a snow sprite
whose name was Pearl White.
It's said they had quite a flirtation!
