'Silky' Morgan
~*Marge Tindal*~

They called him 'Silky' Morgan,
it was easy to see why.
He was suave and debonair,
and could turn a lady's eye.

And let me tell ya' boys
when 'Silky' went walking by,
the ladies all would turn and stare,
then you could hear 'em sigh.

He'd tip his hat and say, "Howdy, mam."
Well, that's all it took it seems.
Man, he could lay 'em low
with a glance from eyes of cool mint green.

One flash of lash and they were goners.
The women all would swoon.
The music played sweet serenade
when 'Silky' stepped into the room.

And he could dance, that 'Silky' could.
He'd waltz 'em across the floor.
The ladies lined up 'round the block
for a chance at one dance more.

Silky-smooth his moves,
as each lady he addressed
fell to faint of fancy,
as though her heart
had been caressed.

'Silky' played his hand
with the fairest of the land.
The other gents were stymied
at the charm that he possessed.

When ladies were asked
what turned their heads
about this kind of guy
they only *sighed*
and proclaimed,
"Ah! That 'Silky' lives his name."

This piece is silky-smooth alright Marge...this piece to me seems like a journey to past of how life used to be and how men were such great dancers before all of todays technodynanics of dancing was involved and most importantly, everyone had a positive and enjoyable past....anyways Marge, this piece has great imagery and I truly enjoyed it!

So glad to catch you in a *giggle*.
Don't have the foggiest idea why 'Silky' jumped on my shouder

Thanks, gal !

Marge girlie, I've met him he's a doctor!! He is and he's a surgeon, he is soooo smooth he could slip a knife in your heart without you even noticing it. About as treacherous as they come,  
Love this one Margie girl, I really do. And I'm going to put this up in the Doctors Mess, with a little note, do you know who this is? And they all will I know they will.
Oh Margie this is sooooooo great, and by the end of today everyone will be calling him Silky!!
Take care

Yeah, Silky is a smoothie
And a cutie, I suppose
He loves to have the ladies
Love him in his dapper clothes.

He loves to whirl them on the floor
And sweep them off their feet
The gals all give him hi-signs
When they see him on the street

Yeah, he's got moves and he's ok
In some ways, I suppose....
Cause he's me younger brother
And I taught him all he knows!

Kethry~
Just jumped on my shoulder
and whispered in my ear ...
Believe me - sometimes I do NOT know where they come from.
Thanks, hon.

Corinne~
Thank you, lady.
Oh ... I'm different alright.
LOL !  

Balladeer~

Now that should NOT surprise me
As I'm often caught in delight
at the things you do and say
far into the night *wink*

I should have guessed it
when I did hear
All the ladies whispering
'Thank you, SilkyDEER !

I don't think it was Balladeer's brother at all.  I think that it was the "deer" himself as I heard tale that his "silkies" were covered in photos of SPAM!!   You might want to check for that scar that he earned back in his hey day.

A life with love will have some thorns, but a life without love will have no roses.
