 "Rosemary Bottoms" sculpted by artist Nancy Cuttle Ms. Rosemary by Linda L. Dowd She’ll get the bottle, ~ If a man's got the thyme. She’ll spew out epithets, Then spout a sweet rhyme. Her bottom is broader, Than a barn filled with hay. She’s a wannabe siren, Who loves naughty play.. She preens in the sunshine, But she’s her best at night. As she sashays down streets, ~ What a comical sight! She is friendly to all, ~ Especially to men. She loves their attention, ~ That little brood hen! She titters and teases, Dropping men to their knees. Then they’re off to her garden, For ‘birds and the bees’! ~ |

Linda my dear, you wrote it well although Ms Rosemary sounds a bit naughty to me, delightfully naughty that is, Where have you been lately, we have all missed you. love. Lindsay |

excellent write (as always)...my favorite line: "Her bottom is broader, Than a barn filled with hay" loved the inspiration...my problem would be my neighbor's...they've got a Goofy on display...I am only limited by talent and the lack of my neighbor's taste |

There's something about this dear gal so endearing That keeps all the hot blooded fellas a leering I can't go to sleep due to all of the noise She makes in the garden with all of the boys And it gets real old going out to do gardening And seeing the ground is not all that is hardening But that's not the worst of the matter you see 'Cause tawdry Ms. Rosemary's married to me Delightful write Linda. Where'd you meet my wife? Take care and Have fun. Steve |

God bless all "3" of you! lol Earthy One P.S. I would wager that Rosemary will be adding some 'spice' to your life! lol |

Rick, I'd say "you have a way with words as well" ~ not only in your poetry but in your responses to the poems of others! Hmmm, if Rosemary were to know about you, she'd be asking me for your email addy! ~ and your phone # and address if I happened to know it! lol Linda |
