I remember the one
who taught me with the gentleness of
deep, green clover

and n'er shall I forget the one
who taught me how she wanted to be touched
in the First Baptist Church pews

oh, the sweetness of the one
who taught me to tongue put my tongue in her mouth
and her with a mouth full of chocolate

the fairest of them was the one
who taught me to catch high-flyin' moonbeams
make love to them, and set them free

but the one I'll not forget
is she who wore red and black flimsy things to bed
Satan's spawn? she smiled and said not

still, it was her
who taught me to go into the forest deep
and find a nice green switch

I suppose you could write a book on what they
taught  you, JP, and  how well you learned.

Heh.Heh. Yeah, ms. e, I could do that, and by the way, I was a diligent learner and learned well. It's a possibility down the road. Thanks for being here and throwing out that idea.

Haha!! Sounds like you talk of experience yourself, Eric. Nope, haven't worn out anything just yet. I dread the day. Thanks for showing up and giving me a couple of chuckles.

Sorry, JP, it's taught not thought.
Oh, the error of my way...

Your writing is one of the things I so very much missed about not spending time on the Blue Pages... and this shows why.

Another great job!

Haha! Yeah, thanks, Karen. What would us old guys do without our memories, huh? Thank you for finally braving the "heat" to check this one out.
