I shall be away for quite some time. It's been great fun. Stay safe, stay well. Goodbye for now. Joe
I kissed her on her butterfly,
I kissed her on her rose,
I kissed her on her angel's wings,
I kissed her heart and scroll.
In the urgency for love, sometimes
There is little time to spare, and
Even less time to think. She was
Lonely and so was I, so it made sense
To fall in love – if only for an hour.
I kissed her on her spider's web,
I kissed her flowering shoots,
I kissed her on her mermaid,
I kissed her Betty Boop.
Tell me, is this way to paradise or
Have I been misled? Oh, no sir,
You have not, for there is a tattoo
Or two you may rely on for guidance.
I kissed her on her tiger's head,
I kissed her golden bell,
I kissed her on her beauty spot,
I kissed her pimpernel.
Late afternoon sunshine streamed
Across the bed as we found each
Other for the third time. Her
Rose in one hand, her butterfly in
The other – seems an hour wasn't
Nearly long enough.
