Journey Concluded.

Fay Slimm.

   

Journey Concluded.

*

Not wanting to dally and by now
truly psyched I adopted a simper
of mysterious come hither
learnt from wry Mona,
but Lisa be blowed, I needed


to focus his eyes on ME.

 

Emergency chemistry at the ready
did what I expected
as he suddenly lifted in welcome
a heavy-ringed hand. 

I sizzled with hope at seduction's
success and sashayed
my hips in his macho direction.

*

*

How was I to know he looked over
my shoulder to she
who had entered and brazoned
her flounce toward

his intimate grin as he waved.

By then beside him and groping
for something to say I asked
for a light but had no cigarette.


so sidled away with my bravado 

hiding in wile's unattainment.

 

Beaten perhaps to the post I asked
my inner-ego was the show
of below-the-belt salacious behaviour
the best way

of snaring a stranger.

 

Blinded by trying to find Mr Right I made
being flighty so conceivable
and my journey to naked coercion could
not have been plainer,


yet covertly

I wept for another lost dream.

*

*

But journeys lead somewhere I think

as I hitch up my skirt a few inches.


A quite handsome lad had insisted,
in the last café that he buy me a drink
*
*

so widen my tactics I will.

      Yes I agree that red-blooded males had better watch out in Cafés from now on - - - so pleased you enjoyed the trio of fun-takes on what a journey could mean - - - have a blessed weekend my dear friend. ................. huggles to you and to he................ from me. xxxx

      Aha, the ways and wiles of the growing lady. Heartbreak shrugged off and sounding in that thought balloon above her head = NEXT!

      Hmmm will this entertaining lady be content to sip her coffee contentedly or will she letch further episodes across our mps screens. Somehow i think her growing pains may yet further entertain us.

      A story teller AND a fine poet. Very entertaining.

      • Fay Slimm.

        Well that would be telling - her libido seems punctured right at this moment so will leave her to handcuff the next likely lad - - but who knows what that wily lass will be up to next.................. thank you so much for your generous comments D.A..

            Playing the game can be so painful, you need to get so vulnerable to have any chance, I feel your pain.
