ok, i'm here and ready!
let's go eat out.
where's the raw bar?
lie down in my arms, baby,
i'll love you like no other!
i'll kiss your heart
and take each part
of you inside my soul
until we lose control!

remember the day at the alley
when i did the splits down the aisle,
landing chinese style
and held up both my hands
like i got six points,
the whole league
staring at me,
and you loving
every minute of it?

TOUCHDOWN!
i'm ready for that
extra point
so hold on tight!
you might
just like it.

those shoes were slick
and so were you,
you sweet-tongued devil!

i tried for a strike
but only got a split,
since you kept making
beautiful comments
from behind
about my long legs
and yours intertwined,
sitting in that chair
keeping score.

i couldn't figure out
if it was bowling or football,
but who cared, anyway?
you played me right
and i want to play again.

i'll join your tournament
any day! i'll come
into your league,
so field my words,
because i wouldn't refuse
your interference
or any illegal procedure
you might perform!

hey! and we don't
even need a referee
unless he's got a camera
and wants to do a photoshoot.

you keep score, ok?
i like it when you do that!
i'm gonna get inside your shell.
i absolutely love a raw bar
at the bowling alley
in the middle of
football season.

give me your pigskin
and your pins.
i'll bowl you over
first and ten.

H H H H O O O O T T T T!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Need a cold shower after this one. Passing interference on you. You get the yellow flag (lol ha ha ha). This was a great first write. I hope you like it here at Passions. Welcome, welcome, welcome.
By the way, just wondering, was this in your dreams?

I, too, loved this. Very good first post. But you might might want to take a look at the 'Adults' forum if you're going to get any more descriptive. Liked this alot!

Hey welcome to Passions! This is really great writing!!

The poet is like a cocoon; in him the caterpillar of the past finds rest, and from him the butterfly of the future emerges.

This was very original! Loved it!

I sing my tearful song which has charms only for me."
