A hundred men fall at my feet
The oil helps; it works a treat

A thousand say I'm beautiful
They've been listening to my bull

Ten thousand men offer hearts
Everyday in supermarts

A million men are stuck on me
I work in a glue factory

Wise men give me praise and flowers
They've found it shuts me up for hours

Men fall upon my rhyme, my sword
To bore their pants off, my reward.

Kethry, this certainly made me smile, in fact it made me laugh like a drain. Wonderful it really is. Love this one I really do.
Take care

Sunny1,
Thanks, I'm glad it made you smile anyway.

Mushy,
thanks. How do you laugh like a drain? is that like sleeping like a log?

Nkedthoughts,
Thanks. Now that would be telling and I'm not good at sharing  

Be well
Kethry

Listening to every heart

she writes with wit
so all may hear
her arrow is aimed
at the heart of 'Deer

she would succeed
with her wit
if she could just
get 'Deer to sit

but instead
he's out and about
he doesn't even
hear her shout

so it's our duty
nay, our chore
to keep this at top
forevermore....

What a treat for us all to be able to share in this "SHAMELESS" hunt for the "DEER".  Loved it my friend.  I don't think you will need oil and glue to keep him around but I would watch out for all of the other women out there after his "GENTLEMEN'S" charm.

ROFL!!!!   Ok, ya got me to smile..

When I said I wanted to cement
Our friendship, what I really meant
Was love, not glue, my Aussie gal
You don't need glue to be my pal.

I'd love to have you, friend of mine,
But I just hate to stand in line!
When the crowd thins out, give me a call
Let's see if you can take my all

Mark,
they sat "gentlemen prefer blondes", so I should be idea, except for the large bald spot on my head where my hair was pulled out after clawing my way to the front of the deer hunting queue.

Daniel, I'm so glad I could make you laugh, I always say a smile a day keeps the doctor away. Where is that Toerag anyway?

Sven, I think you just wore out my name. Now I have to find a new one. How about Bolivar Randyshanks? Yeah that's a good name. You could call me weevil for short.

ethome I like the whine of love.

Deer,
Well I've already had all I can take of you, so anything else is a bonus.

Be well
Kethry
