Plankton
The swordfish swam
straight toward the dam.
In thick plankton got caught
he had never quite thought
that the meadow would be
overgrown in the sea.

Plumpudding
Do I want it ? I Really now,
why do you ask, I have it, I will keep it
and no one will take it from me.
But that still leaves the great dilemma
about the pudding made from plums
being made squishy, between two bodies.
So were you thinking of getting
down onto your knees with me and we
would then clean up the mess?
Well, I don't mind the plumpudding
and the idea deserves consideration.

Poem By Rachel (From Me To Thee)
My darling dear across the seas
Would there were an inland breeze
To carry quickly to your side
Myself, a short time to abide.
Before my heart shall beat its last
T'would be my wish to hold you fast
And for a while my great desire
Would bring to me your inner fire.
And so I dream, feeling a thrum,
To stay within your beating drum.
Is this all wrong? It cannot be.
Though we are parted by the sea,
A singing bond exists it seems
And gives some substance to my dreams.
Please, beating drum, keep me inside
I'll not disturb the rhythmic tide
That counts your days and mine as well
In love within I'd wish to dwell.

Polygamy
You say a man is never free
unless he likes polygamy.
Insatiable, keen to play?
Let me correct you if I may.
If you were satisfied with one
and never tired of the fun
you would not need to have a clone
because you'd be a monotone.
If eyes and senses God had given
you would be active, even driven.
With so much beauty all around,
you think of it, the pubic mound
and two soft rises, they be blessed,
plus so much more, you know the rest.
So, have a look at royalty
they are not sworn to loyalty.
I ask you now, do you agree
that all the beauty that you see
is for the eye of the beholder.
Would you permit for lust to smolder
because you think that such demeanour
is justified due to much greener,
more luscious and well-tended grass?
And if you do you'd be an ass
you see, I note that every day
(it matters little if you pray) ,
you find a new and pleasant spouse
inside your head and in your house.
It's like the petals of a rose
they open as they please your nose
with fragrances of times that change.
So, my advice is, do arrange
your thoughts about meandering,
no woman likes philandering.
And if you feel that you must look
to land a stranger on your hook
who's pretty, smart and also nice,
then rest assured that all you guys
are dumb beyond your horny dreams
you only comprehend what seems
to be the love of one more dame,
reality puts it to shame.
You're searching for your petty soul,
which is a man's most precious goal.
But, will you find it in seduction
or in a thrilling introduction?
Your soul can never really stray,
it has a destiny to stay
within your wrinkled, sinful skin.
So I advise you, don't give in
to all they hype of unknown pleasure.
Just have a look at your own treasure.
