She’s wearing his coat,
She has his umbrella.
What sort of a girl
would do that to her fella?
OK you poets out there, I have a challenge for you.
Write a concluding verse in lieu of a comment. Go on, do it.
Thank you Tess at Magpie Tales for another challenging prompt.
He gave her his coat,
ReplyDeleteForget the umbrella,
From the look of her legs
He's one lucky fella!
Haha! Bruce, you set the bar a bit high!
DeleteLet's see what's next. I can hardly wait!
Chauvinist male ..
ReplyDeleteIs that all you see?
Look very close now ..
See all of me!!
I was hoping you would come aboard Woonie! Wonderful!
DeleteOne who is crafty
ReplyDeleteand likes what she sees
will always play dirty -
bring him to his knees!
Take note all, Jen is speaking from experience!
ReplyDelete"any girl named Thelma or Stella!"...how is that line for ya! Love your title to Stafford! :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks Carrie. Whenever I hear or see the name Stella I think of Spike Jones. If that makes no sense, you are too young to know...
DeleteI have had my share of kisses in the rain. Am still awestruck - but I agree with Jinsky. So my line is for the girls who know what they want -
ReplyDeleteOne who is a go-getter!
I somehow knew that.... Hobart? It rains a lot there.
DeleteWhen I left Hobart, I was six years old, Stafford. But then again, I already had a mind of my own!
DeleteAnd I bet you were already collecting kisses in the rain!
DeleteHe's not stupid.
ReplyDeleteHe's on a winner.
Straight back to his place,
Right after dinner ;)
Trust you Sue, right down to the basics but are you sure the dinner came first?
Deletea girl who knows better
ReplyDeleteHow to weather
The storm
Exactly. She took his umbrella and coat! He, poor idiot gets the pneumonia!
DeleteA lady who's long in sense and years,
ReplyDeleteand likes her men wet behind the ears.
:o)
They do too and apparently with wet behinds too.
DeleteiI I knew the answer,
ReplyDeleteI still wouldn't tell ya
;)
On the grounds of self incrimination?
DeleteWhy doesn't she REALLY kick over the traces
ReplyDeleteAnd also divest him of those fancy braces?
later, later!
DeleteA great question, that.
ReplyDeleteSo what is the answer, Anthony?
DeleteWhat the picture doesnt say
ReplyDeleteIs she just led the cops off his trail
Rotten bugger is so grateful
She bailed him this day !
Oops, I first read through I misread 'bailed'. Haha! No, you work it out.
DeleteShe didn't need his coat.
ReplyDeleteThat much was a lie.
She wanted to say
"Come in and get dry."
Do I win a cigar?
Thanks Doc, so it was a trick. She just wanted him to get so wet that he would agree to come home so she could have her way with him. He could do worse. You get the cigar but this is a non-smoking site. Sorry.
DeleteFella doesn't care
ReplyDeleteDoesn't mind the rain
Finally found the girl
To drive him insane!
Wonderful Lyn, I think you nailed it.
DeleteShe'll smile softly at him -
ReplyDeletethe sweetest of faces
Take six paces back -
then let go of his braces!
Ouch and ouch again! You napalmed his nipples!
DeleteYour first attempt that came through on my e-mail was mush more honest but nasty. In this one she has a sneaky streak. I am tempted to reinsert the other one!
DeleteBTW, you are allowed two attempts (or more).
Elizabeth Bennett,
ReplyDeleteCommitting a folly,
To wet Darcy's shirt,
She upended his brolly.
Did he offend her pride or prejudice!
ReplyDeleteWell done Little Nell and Stafford - very smooth!
DeleteRain kisses
ReplyDeleteerase
all protocol.
Tess, you are playing with the form! But I must admit, you got it in as few words as possible... the essence of good poetry.
DeleteThe same sort of girl
ReplyDeleteWho gets you in a whirl
So you forget your wallet
As your thoughts unfurl
Been there, done that!
DeleteNo apology necessary, Kate.
I forgot my manners! Great prompt....
ReplyDeleteShe’s wearing his coat,
ReplyDeleteShe has his umbrella.
What sort of a girl
would do that to her fella?
She's that sort of a gal
Who will take all
From her pal
Cuz her name is Cinderella
I know- it is kinda lame-
It's the best I can do at this moment!
All contributions welcome, Kathe and you can come back again to leave another verse any time.
DeleteThat was fun to do, so thanks to everyone who contributed and to those who came to look. We all need an audience.
