She sure is pretty She makes heads turn I can see why you'd want her How she'd cause your loins to burn. She's radiant and beautiful Causes weakness in the knees Men sweat as she passes Oh, she's just such a tease. You are the envy of all This is so true You're a handsome couple There's nothing I can do. But will she wash your clothes and iron them? Rub your back and pluck your ears? Listen how your day went? And kiss away your tears? She must be something special You chose her over me I wonder if she'll love you But I have to set you free. I wasn't enough to keep you You needed more than me I hope that she was worth it Are you happy as can be? A better pair I've yet to see Nothing could be finer But the cowboy of my dreams Traded me in for a Freightliner!! ~Di~ ~People shine from the inside out~ |

Yup, have to pluck those unsightly hairs lol. Give me the tweezers and let me at 'em!! It IS really a nice truck though lol... It would have been much more insulting had it been an ugly truck no???? Have to have a sense of humour about these things Thanks for the comments, they make me smile ~People shine from the inside out~ |

You told it like it is but with such style.. great poem....reminds me of a couple of lines from a song by ..The Little River Band.. "The other guy won't be around to talk to the kids He won't pick you up when you're down the way that I did." I wrote a poem about this kind of thing it's posted in open 9 It's called Skin Deep so I know how you feel. voting |

Hi James Yes, in fact this SHOULD be a sad story..and in real life, it was. I think there's too much "sad" in real life. It's a natural response but sometimes it's ok to look at the lighter side. For me, laughter is the best times. ~People shine from the inside out~ |
