nailed her eyes
into my face
without hammer...

The divine swell of
Her heaving breasts
Soothes the pain
Of large
Bills....

Behind painted desk,
Her smile welcomes everyone,
Counting the minutes.

The receptionist smiled and captivated the room.
Her beauty and curves made the men swoon.
She was all business when she talked,
But they forgot about business when she walked…...

A doctor who worked in Bombay
Banned seventeen patients one day
They all had Delhi belly ...
Waiting room got so smelly
Receptionist turned them away!

The Receptionist


Of her eyes 
and of her hair
I have been 
aware one year
and I have said 
no more than 
I’ll be gone 
all afternoon,
take all calls, 
all messages.

Resiliently
receptionist recovered
recycled report


See subdued sunbeams
Subsisting still, somewhere shine
Suffusing sunset


Trendy teenager
Trusting tie-dyeing trainee
Tee shirt total trash...

Abigail Kirk lived in outback town Burke,
A hotel receptionist, she had a slight quirk,
Her rather long ponytail stretched to the floor,
After a few years it had grown much more,
She sold it to ten bald men and retired from work....

Power of the Tongue

The tongue we know not
Is a good receptionist
But a poor postmaster
Though cold and wet
Full of fire and smoke it is
It sets ablaze the Savanna,
Forests and the Sahara
It destroys love-birds’ nests
And all is ashes...

Our boss employed a receptionist
Whose beauty we could not compare
Double D cups woke up the knights
As pheromones surged through the air

Her chair is usually empty
Excepting this handwritten note:
"I have just stepped out for the male"
Exactly as written I quote...

The sun was late this morning
Or was I early
At any rate
I waited
Tapping my fingers
Impatiently.
The appointment
Requested I show up
20 minutes early
To register
My shadow.
The receptionist
Told me
“the sun is running
A bit behind schedule”
Please be patient.
My shadow grumbles
It hates these appointments.

Lovely Receptionist Is Cute

We had told the whole truth to the tooth;
Then again told whole truth to the tooth;
Tooth to tooth danced,
And we had romanced;
We have tried to get to root of the truth.

For my famious  dentist did start to root,
We understand at his talent he is astute;
Problem  solved;
Cavity dissolved;
Also, his lovely receptionist is very cute.

Mr. G will see you now, the receptionist said.
I walked in to see a giant shoebill. He was enormous.
He looked down his beak at me, stared me down.
I could feel my throat gulp a wad of salty gooey stuff.

What did you need? He asked. I was terrified.
I claimed to be in the wrong office, leaving swiftly.
Scary isn’t he? The receptionist asked me.
I was too frightened to nod. Last time I ask to see the mayor....

Ocular hypertension and
A couple of jabs here

I read the letters on the chart and
Threw in the towel

But she was adamant 
The connotations

Pay-per-view Las Vegas
Ears bitten 

Jubba-jubba-jib-jab and
A bathroom meteorologist 

I got the receptionist
In a headlock 

I didn't kill Davey Moore
But I made another appointment and

Promised her the next time I was in
I would be the heavyweight champion of the world

A sirocco greeted me
rushing past in heated blasts
my maps had ruined her weekend.
I sought the cool glare
of the new receptionist
only to be buffeted by
the nor’east gale
emanating from the office
of the station manager.
I gazed into the future
cast my lot with Wednesday
“warm, sunny, idle breezes”
Repeating it every hour
on the hour.
A flood of complaints
deluged the station.
I left the building
in an elevator
“partly rowdy
with no chance of shame”.
