Oh Balladeer, you foolish lad,
Do you think that she'll be glad,
When you've written of your prowess?
How you look when you're undressed?
How you shave your chin and back?
How rich you are for what you lack?
How rascally you are when you're alone?
How often it is you must atone,
For philandering acts that you inflict
On innocent women you have tricked?
How fickle you are when you're on a binge?
How easily, when sober, you come unhinged?
(I guess she's safe if you come over)
(How rare it is when you are sober!)
So go on 'Deer, woo our sweet Doreen,
It's time she sees what we men have seen.
I only hope she wakes up in time,
(And promises instead that she'll be mine!)

bwahahahahaha

ROFL - Thanks for the early morning laugh, LongJohn.  I wouldn't worry too much over Doreen, she's a pretty intuitive gal ya know.  

It's been awhile hasn't it? - Sure glad to see you again.

LJA,
You promised you'd be true to me and now I see you philandering over these blue pages. I'm going off to sulk and I'm not even going to tell you how good your poem is or how much it made me laugh

Boys will be boys, but you know it's not fair to try and take over Deer's sweet girl.
You already have one of your own. Besides we know one is all you can handle at a time.

WRITE HER!!!!!!!!!!!!  Or is it that Balladeer's love poems have gotten to you so much that he is all that you can think about and you disguise it behind your words of jest with a sweet poet mentioned in the end.  Now I am curious to see what happens next in this one.

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

ROFL!! Cat got your tongue there, LongJohn?? hehe...backed up against a wall, are thee?   Well, you trashed me good...you got the invite..let's see you rise to the occasion (although Lorelei swears that hasn't been possible for years) LOL! I think inot2B has you pegged REAL well...obviously your power of non-performance is well-known...

LongJohn....your destiny is calling..LOL!

As once we set Russia loose on China
To stay in first one contender would be blind a
As we thought with Iran and Iraq
'Twould be obvious that both did lack
Essential resources fot the fray
Neither with strength to stay the day
Moreover both missed the dark horse
Coming up on the inside of course
So take a peek at the catbird seat
See who's purring oh so neat

Sorry fellas

Doreen - Lessee if I understand what I think you have indicated.  The last two lines of my poem to Balladeer says, in one sentence, *ahem*

I only hope she wakes up in time,
(And promises instead that she'll be mine!)

Now, let's review your response - shall we?  You responded to my very confidential letter to 'Deer:

"soo.... i write a poem, asking to be written... and you write to Balladeer, asking me to promise to be yours????!!!??  

i'm so confused.... why would you write to HIM to ask? ROFL   .... "

I wasn't asking him, ya silly girl - I was hoping... Did you REALLY read my poem?  *hurt eyes*

Thank you all for your encouragement - big hugs for everybody
