This is dedicated to D Q

Your Seduction Technique Needs Work


You say all the right words and in all the right way
And I admit for a while you held my heart in sway
But I don’t believe you really understand loves’ name
Or that truth and fidelity are not some childish game
For if you did you’d see the damage that’s been done
And the words that killed love came from your gun
How many times are you going to fire off truths’ blanks?
Well I’m sorry Pal but this heart says not for me thanks

You seduce each heart with the touch of a satin sheet
And the way the ladies fall for your charms is quite neat
But how many ladies do you think will wait in your line
While you pretend innocence saying please one at a time
If you attempt to keep more that one person on a string
Sooner than later my dear friend a warning bell will ring
And although no one expects commitment straight away
We do expect loyalty that lasts longer than a single day

Has no one explained that saying the words isn’t it all?
Love has to have some real meaning before we will fall
It’s okay to play the field and to be flirty and rather light
But we’d be more willing if it wasn’t just for the night
Women are the strangest creatures we dislike tasting lies
There’s no sadder sight to us than when the truth dies
A man who compliments us, and makes his words shine
Admittedly he’s desirable but the truth would suit us fine

This is just a friendly word of woman's wisdom, take advice
For when you flatter us and flirt don’t put truth in a vice
Try thinking what you really wish to be the result of this
Are you after our hearts or just a light and flirty little kiss?
For we don’t mind what lengths you go to if you want more
If it’s only as a light little flirt or do you want to really soar
But tell us your intentions, and try us please one by one
For en masse we don’t shine, but individually we’re the sun

Kari love, thank you so very very muchly dear heart, and it’s all thanks to my wise and wonderful phoenix sisters. And I even quite like it, it’s not venomous, it’s not bitter, it’s just greatly relieving to get the weight off of my shoulders. A poetically perfect way to vent the negativity.
Take care love as always
                                             Majestic Cock a Hoop Marsha
              

James love, thank you very muchly with luck either it will strike a cord or it won’t but I doubt if he’d recognise himself. Who of us sees ourselves as others see us.
Take care love
                                                            Mushy
                  

Sven love, thank you dear heart as always a wonderful reply. Normally you know I’m as gentle as a kitten, but get me angry and my do my true colours show through love. And I never think I have much of a temper really. But I must have love, because it’s showing through now.
Take care love
                                                              Mushy
                      

Circe love, I know he’s not worthy of me, which is why he’ll never have the chance again. My eyes are open now and I’ll not be going down that road ever again.
Thank you so much love
Take care love
                  Mushy
                    

LL love, thank you very much love. This is one of those poems that I needed to post. As I said to Sven I rarely get riled or angry, and if I do it’s not normally for long. However if I ever really get angry then it’s not wise to stand in my firing line. (Now that should have everyone fearing my wrath.) You’re quite safe everyone, just beware that you don’t yank my chain.
Take care love
                Mushy
                  

Dyme, thank you this is one I enjoyed very much writing.
Take care
                 Marsha
                    

Paula love, very satisfying to write this. And you’re quite right he doesn’t deserve me, which is why he’ll never have me at his beck and call. I thought this was a far better way of getting my point across.
Take care love
                      Mushy
                        

Kethry love, thank you always dear heart. For making me see, for showing me light, for just being you. My sister of choice and of my heart who always sees the good in me, even when I can’t.
Take care love
                   Mushy

Marsha,
        good for you love!!  Don't let them get you like that. . . show them that it takes more than a smooth voice and pretty words. . . it takes a heart. . .

You are on top of it. It is VERY disheartening to say the least to see so many hurt by things like this.

You've said it well!

Yes, there's nothing worse than a person who lies.  This is strong and real. Thank you Marsha

You go girl
This poem I adore
It speaks "I am woman
hear me roar.
Those type of guys
Have no true class
They will always remain
Snakes in the grass

Sharon love, thank you, I agree actually, I think it should go out as a warning to all. A bit like health warnings on cigarettes, you know the danger and it’s up to you whether you listen. But at least you’ve been warned. Thank you so much love, I do appreciate you saying that it is a great job.
Take care, love
                                                               Mushy  
                      

Sven love, you’re so right love, it takes a loving heart that thinks before it harms, one that is sensitive and trustworthy. As I said before, I shall take more care, I promise
Thanks for your support always love, you are one of my favourite phoenix sisters and the wings of fire suit you more than almost anyone else I know.
Take care, love
                                                              Mushy
                    
WhtDove love, thank you so very very much love. As I’ve said I enjoyed writing this and I think that I did quite a good job. And I thank you for your comments and welcome you as a phoenix. My there will be a whole sky full soon.
Take care, love
                                                            Mushy
                  

Kathleen love, we can every single one of us bend the truth slightly, but there is a difference between saying something to save a persons feeling hurt, and an outright lie. It’s the taste of lies and the death of truth that I take exception to. Thank you muchly Kathleen, for seeing the point.
Take care, love
                                                             Mushy
                  

VAS, THANK YOU, and I mean it
Take care
                                                              Mushy

Elise love, thank you and I hope he listens, I doubt it, but miracles do happen love.
Take care
                                                            Mushy
                  
Mark my friend, that’s probably the wisest course of action, as I’ve said before, I rarely lose my cool, but on the rare occasions it happens (and they are very rare) everyone knows to dive for cover. And it’s amazing you know, once someone has had an example of me losing my cool they never wish to see it again ever. (I can’t imagine why?)
Take care, love
                                                            Mushy
                  

Paula love do I thank you again, well I will eternally. And you know without my saying that I am thinking of you today. Take care of yourself love
Love and hugs
                  Mushy

Doreen love, thank you so very much love.

Take care, love
                                                               Mushy

Hope, thank you very muchly, I do value your visits and your comments

Take care, love
                                                               Mushy
