Rewards She treats me like a horse No, a flunky donkey With ne’er a thought of divorce And loads me till I’m wonky. A carrot is held before my nose Desire makes me pull the load Where goes my nose so goes my toes She keeps my eyes upon the road. She tells me I’m sir Galahad Her knight in shining white and yet She leads me to the edge of mad And winks at me a sweet coquette. Her favor seems to weight like lead It covers me from cap-a-pie Yet I will pull the load till dead Or ashes spread upon the sea. If this is love, I am a horse. Sorry, I meant donkey of course. |

Many of us are indeed led into these happily confusing realms of love. Wonderful play on phrasing here, Sy. Enjoyed this, my friend!  Best wishes, /Kit |

JM, Women have a tendency to over pack. And that is not kindly on the back. Randy refused the plea so I played the donkey. I think we are ready for chips and beer. WWRS RSWells A mental whip stings more than a stick. LOL |

too, too delightful, Sy! Impeccable rhythm/rhyme with a sweet, sweet sentiment. Me thinks you're an adorable burro and not a donkey, stubborn against her, but stubborn in the steadfast sense. Well done, thoroughly enjoyed! Whether on the shoal or on the shore, |

Seymour darling heart this is truly one of your best I love it, and of course you knew I would. I can just see you lugging the load, and you used my favourite expression wonky donkey, which is very very southern England, you could almost be a native love. You take care of your back love, we wouldn’t want you out of action for any length of time, I’d miss you much too much. Truly excellent writing, I love it utterly utterly utterly  Love and warm stuff As always Mushy Breathe through the heat of our desire |
