'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." ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

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!

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 Mushy Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |

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! |

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 ! ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

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. author unknown |
