Scents of sea, historical townships and seafood
Thrilled like vacations not just a dinner destination.
Each trip to Chesapeake Bay staid that fine mood.
As we rode, my family's blend got on its finest silly
Making jokes, singing, bro and I loved Dad’s riddles.
Eyes all turned somber passing the barn site where
Destiny once heard JW Booth say, ‘useless, useless ...’
Crackers, hammers, picks, butter sat on brown paper with
Randomly scattered crabs piled high excited my family.
Although not novices, Dad would inspect our dissects,
Brag to Moma about how strong his shellfish genes
Swam, huh?
The old man is steamed with a pot on his head
Ice tea has no dibs on this tea cozy aptly fed.
We don’t know his name, thinks his dog calls him Fred.
Don’t get close to the steam, it will burn your hand red.
There is always more than one side of a story
Many mamas do not want to hear the other side.
They get steamed as their darling presents her case, sobbing.
But wait. what about the other mama?
Is her baby also throwing things and raging about the event?
And how did the teacher miss it if it was such a big deal?
The two mamas meet in the middle of a mud pond to brawl.
Their children are smiling and smirking,.
loving it that they yanked their chains.
Both cheering for their own mama,
sticking out their tongues at each other.
Loving this proof that their mamas love them.
Silly? Maybe to some.
Validation to others.
Steamed Ferret
Very steamy hot thoughtful stuff
get me hotter sure enough
getting hard to keep it down
feral ferret will swim or drown
would you like to eat a chop
as i'm fumbling at your top
lamb is good but tiddley's better
cannot get the catch unfetter
can we have a cuddle now
moving closer to the chow
tween your thighs I could slip
panties dinna wanna slip
things are damp its getting harder
no way to get between
in a rotten Russian Lada
gear stick jabs me so obscene
finally i'm in the passion pit
plunging driven just to it!
yes i'll make you moan a bit
but i'm only dreaming :)
Don Johnson
Yes Trace :)
Arriving home from work
Sleepy and tired
Hot shower i craved
A quiet evening desired
To the bathroom i go
Cascades of water sounds
Through the steamed up glass
A curvaceous figure is found
Her shoulder length hair
Soaked back in hold
Her body pressed to the pane
A sight to behold
As i watch her shower
Admiring her lathered hands
Caressing as she cleans
In solitary command
Her undulations
Wetted glow
In adventurous display
Her body shows
I catch her eye
Through the steamed up glass
My girlfriend, my love
My Highland lass
Door ajar
She invites me in
Naked like birth
Skin to skin
Our hands in wander
As the water flows
We merge into one
In loving glow
