"Oh my" sighed Morning Glory,"I have so many Blooms" "And nothing to support them.I fear they'll die",she swooned "Oh Mr.Don Juan,I can see your stems are very strong, They would make a wondrous place to lay my blooms upon.
"And you have just a bloom or two,on those big heavy stems, You've plenty space left over Won't you invite me in?"
"Oh no "said Mr.Don Juan,"I've heard about your kind, And I've been warned to stay away,from all your clinging vines" "Why Mr Don Juan,I'm Amazed!How one so big and strong Would be afraid to share a stem,to rest my blooms upon."
"Well...okay" said the Don Juan,"I'm sure you mean no harm, I'll share a stem with you"he said,succumbing to her charms She nestled closely to him,and soon they were entwined, His massive stems were covered,with Morning Glory's vines
His few blooms now are fading,.. He gasp for one last breath. As Morning Glory sighs relief........ And chokes Don Juan to death! By:Bobby Smith copyright:1999 (3rd collection) |
