~ Marsha’s Men ~ ~ The K Connection ~ What is it about men and little me? If I tell you my tale then perhaps you’ll see First there was Jake he was so sweet He was always clean and so very neat But our parents thought two too young Sesame Street was what he always sung Then there was Mick he was so tall His height let me climb the garden wall He lived next door when I was five But he had to go he ate worms that were still alive There was Dirk he carried books for me And regularly came to have his tea He had a brother who picked his nose And then he went off with a girl called rambling Rose Then along came Rick he was a pain He was like being soaked by ice cold rain I never understood him I still don’t I say please leave me alone but no he still won’t There was Mark now he scarred me I couldn’t cope with his duplicity When I fell for him I fell so hard And he wrote you’re dumped in a Christmas card Then there was Mike he was a star We used to go riding in his dad’s car He’d get her up to 60 going downhill But he left me one day for a guy called big Phil Now there’s Jack and what can I say He says he loves me a 100 times a day He is quiet powerful and very well off I think I’ll keep him I won’t send my Jack off All of them had a K don’t you see? Maybe I have some strange affinity Or perhaps it’s an odd coincidence Whatever it is I have no K defence Marsha [This message has been edited by Marsha (edited 12-04-2001).] |

Marsha, So qualifying any future candidates won't be that hard now that you know the connection! LOL |

Marsha, If I change my name from Roger to Kroger, can I be on your shopping list? (By the way, my sweet, Kroger is a grocery store over here). Very cute and the poem was nice too! Roger |

Dear Marsha, I'd ask you to share, but you'd give me the one who ate live worms, I'm afraid.  Nan |

Marsha, this is too cute. Only problem is I always refer to the heartbreaker of my life by "K" so as not to say his whole name and who knows why else. So the thought and rhyme is great, and fun, and yet it made me sad. Go figure.. Luv Sandra |

mushy one, you DO realize that, when keeping baseball scorecards, K signifies a strikeout!!  Maybe that's where you went wrong!! Love your style...and you humor, my friend!  |

Larry, Mmmm yes thank you  Glad it brought a smileas always Mushy   Noah dear boy thank you muchly, it is strictly for the laughs. Although this isn't a patch on the tales I could tell   Love and warm stuff As always Mushy  Stevie darling boy, Marsha strolls over to Stevie and gives him a huge Of course you're the only one darling boy, you know that How on earth would I get through a day without flirting with you daring boy? Mmmmmmmm but remember I promised your Mama that wouldn't inflame you too much. Now Roger is fair game, he hasn't got Juanita to protect him. You can see him quaking in his shoes, can't you? It's okay Roger it's your first week here I'll go easy, but watch out for the wench.  Love and warm stuff as always Mushy Juanita darling girl well did it make you smile love? oh I'm so pleased you came, you'll love the smilies here, they are better than at Moontown. I promise I'll be really good and not lead you into devilment, well, not too much anyway. As always you bring joy with you darling girl, have fun  Love and warm stuff as always Mushy Roger darling boy, now you know the answer to that don't you There's me sitting here wearing my buxom wench a la 'Bet' as in Oliver outfit. And I'm smiling, what more do you want dear boy? Mmmmmm Surely you don't want me to remind you that You're a Married spud ahhhh well that leaves wenching out of my diary today Well you know where I am if you want me love I wonder if we should tell the people here that you and I have a certain understanding Oh well they'll find out. Particularly if the wench appears. I'll tell Keth to keep her claws sheathed, you know how rough she gets when I get to the goodies first Truthfully darling boy welcome I'm so glad you managed to arrive Love and warm stuff As always darling boy Mushy Keth darling girl and sister of my heart, now, is that coincidence that you are under Roger, or is it by design? Mmmm , I don't know anything to steal a march on me. You surely don't want to duel again? You know I'll con you into thinking you've lost. All it takes is a bit of smoke and mirrors darling and as little effort as possible on my part. Besides you won't get away with stealing my words this time Nan has promised to keep an eye on you That's flung a cat among the pigeons hasn't it? you don't think I marched all our friends over here for fun did you? No of course not it's to stop you from running amok. And you know these are just a fraction of the tales I could tell But my lips are sealed Love and warm stuff as always Slushy James  it does look that way doesn't it loveya:  Love and warm stuff As always Mushy    Nan darling girl, Welcome to passions, now post that wonderful poet right now. I would have replied but for some reason I can't. There are just a few too many bugs over at Moontown's new site. Still I'm so pleased to see you I hope you'll love it here Love and warm stuff As aways Mushy I told Keth you'd watch her so if you see any words disappearing we know who has them don't we? Sandra darling girl I know just how you feel even now I can't bear to say his name, let alone see it. And lets face it I'm as happy as a grig. whatever a grig may be I positively beam joy and delight to almost everyone I'm glad it made you smile, even if it was a struggle, thank you. If anyone deserves happiness you do loveya:Love and warm stuff As always Mushy Lyra darling girl I've welcomed you properly on your own post, and it's wonderful. Just like you it's an absolutely wonderful post. I'm so happy you're here, I'm so happy the gang is here. Keth has made me promise not to lead you into too much mischief. Trust me darling Love and warm stuff as always Mushy :wave and yes darling you're right there are plenty more To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace St John ch2 v1 |

'Deer dear heart, now, you know I know nothng about baseball, except that it looks a little like rounders, although the bat is bigger and probably the pitch is too. Oh and you're not allowed to hold the rounders bat with two hands. So how would I know? The most I've seen is a couple of clips like in A Field Of Dreams thats the worst film I've ever seen, its terminally dull and A League of Their Own I liked that film, and the odd scene here and there. I'm assuming from my limited knowledge, that a strike out means that out of the three times the bowler throws the ball at the bat, it's not even touched. So he or she (the person who was supposedly the batter. So what do you call someone who didn't bat, the non batter??) is out? So they then troll off to await their turn at fielding, and hope they can get their own back on the little darling who ended their innings so ignominiously I'm sorry you aren't on the previous replies I've been having a little trouble with the connection tonight. I'm glad it made you smile love it is supposed to bring a few grins. Besides I needed an antidote to the tears you and Keth have been giving me. How often do I have to tell you red rimmed eyes are not at all attractive. (Is this kind 'Deer dear?) Love and warm stuff as always Mushy AD dear heart I'm so pleased you like it, it was supposed to bring a giggle or two Sorry this is a short reply but this is the fifth time I've been disconnected and I want to do it quickly before it goes again Love and warm stuff as always Mushy To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace St John ch2 v1 |
