“SICKLY TODAY”
by
Bill Charles
~~~~
I think I'm sick, perhaps have the flu,
happened last night when I was kissing you,
so now my brains are going down the drain,
too many flushes, I can’t even argue…

H’aaaa…

But it was worth knowing those soft lips,
and when I touched silk with fingertips,
then you coughed loudly in my tender ear,
today I’ve tried to listen, but can hardly hear…

Your lips are moving…

But it was worth every bit I still say,
knowing you close like that, by the way,
and listening to sighs between the coughs,
guess it was just one of the tradeoffs…

Now I’m paying!

Oh yes, I certainly feel really sickly today,
and it was because of things last night,
but you know I'd do it all over again,
just to know you close by candlelight....

H’mmmmmm…

Bill, this is cute and I couldn't help but giggle. I was seeing the picture in my mind of you and here all snuggled up kissing, then she starts coughing in your ear...HaHa!!

I do hope you are just playing and that you're not really sick!?!

A hot toddy perhaps?  Watch out for bugs
that you can't see...  Cute, Bill...

BC:  I think the flu bug has done caught up to you.  Nothing is worth feeling like poo poo.  Next time - when someone is coughing in your ear - step back 6 feet and blow them a kiss or two.

Too cute.  It made me laugh but mostly it made me remember soft touches and whispered sighs, thanx.

(big hugggssssssss) Oh Bill, I'm so sorry you're sick, sweet friend, I'm glad at least you got to spend special time with someone very special as you deserve such true happiness! I too have had a disease, but not in my body, but in my heart! (wipes tears) Please IM me soon and I'll tell you everything, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Bill, thank you for sharing!



Mya love and light always shine upon you!
