I watch him sleep, so virile, full of life

I am not the ideal woman for his wife

He brings me to heights of passionate joy

He touches me, my beautiful handsome boy

Each caress electrifies my being

I close my eyes, imagine I am seeing

The future, with my lover always there

I know it cannot be. As I lay bare

And naked on this bed, I turn to see

His sex-filled eyes enticing, wanting me

My body opens like a fragrant flower

He loves me, leaves me weak. Now is the hour

He moans, he sighs, he dreams of sex just gone

With moisture from my tears I draw upon

His brow the words I know

My sweet, seductive lover I must go

Time and age combine to make us part

You will always stay within my heart

You see, my age will only bring us only pain

Oh how I wish that I were young again.

 

 

Love is ageless, it doesn’t care

About missing teeth and greying hair

It may take longer to undress and lie back

Bones may creak and joints may crack

Teeth in a jar and wigs on the table

Searching for tablets, reading the label

Hearing aids disconnected, glass eyes taken out

Words of love will be a shout

Joint cream applied to knees and hands

Hair net secured with elastic bands

Trusses stored for another day

Back brace folded and put away

Glasses are left near at hand by the light

In case nature calls in the dead of night

Before Hanky Panky prayers must be said

You just never know when you might wake up dead

Now the time is finally here

“Let’s make love, my Doddering Dear”

 

“It has taken two hours to get ready for bed

Let’s just go to sleep instead.”

A few romantic poems for upcoming Valentines Day!!

 

 

“Do you come here often” says he to her

“Surely you have a date

Your face, your eyes, your hair, Wow!!

You really are looking just great!”

 

 

 

“Well, thank you, kind Sir” the lady replied

I took some more care tonight

I hoped to meet a really nice boy

And to me you look just right!”

 

 

 

So they danced and they laughed

They talked and had fun

They shared and they joked and they fought

They each had a thought at the very same time

Yes, I think this is the one!

 

 

 

“Will you marry me, dear” the stranger requested

“I know it’s a little too soon

But I feel I have known you all of my life

We’ll get wed ‘neath the silvery moon!”

 

 

 

The lady was flummoxed

She hmmed and she hawed

“I’ll take a chance with you, I think

You’re very impetuous, kind and a laugh

C’mon and I’ll buy you a drink!”

 

 

 

And so our romantic duo held hands

As they giggled their way up the street

“Can we do this again” she said with a grin

Where else could we pretend to meet!”

 

 

 

So listen here you old married folk

Some role play in a marriage is just

A little bit of naughtiness to spice up your lot

Bring back all the passion and lust!!
