A Ladies Man

Neville

A Ladies Man

 

 

I used to be

Such a ladies man

But in the end

It would have been

The death of me

So I did turn instead

Toward my

Secret plan

And gave you

The very best of me

 

And you did take

That gift and you did

Breathe it in

And you did

Hold it fast

And you did

Lock it in

Yes I used to be

Such a ladies man

But in the end

You would have been

The very death of me

      Some of these poems on this site will be the death of me - or the swoon of me! lol.

      • Neville

        thank you for stopping by to consider this little scribble...

      • dusk arising

        Singleton lifestyle is freedom to do exactly as u like..... and retain that roaming eye (convinced of course one still has those ladykiller looks).

        On the other hand, a good cook and bottlewasher?

        • Neville

          now they are much harder to come by.... cheers mate..

          Very good write Neville. Once you have found the right person the ' Ladies man' need not exist anymore.

          • Neville

            the words of a sage and true.....

                          Brilliant ! I still am and many came close but in the end I think I died as ever day I do feel reborn.

                          Never stop sailing, being who you are!
