I AM AN ANIMAL

There were eight at Christine' Dinner Party

All single and also thirty something.

We were Friends and were paired M & F

I had to see Ruth as an Animal

And vice-versa. ~ Robert with Christine ~ and

Paul with Janet and Alan with Jolene 

The pairings were pulled random from a hat !

Such a game makes you ponder long and hard !

RUTH was very kind ~ She said BRIAN's a BEAR

Big ~ cuddly and his growl's ~ worse than his bite !

I responded with RUTH you're a PUSSY !

Then it got more catty ! PAUL called JANET

A COUGER and she's only thirty-one !

It was meant to be a compliment ~ She

She called PAUL a UNICORN ~ An extinct horrn !

ROBERT was being so nice to CHRISTINE !

It was her party ~ so he said she's a

BUNNY GIRL~ She riposted less of your

BUCK BUGS BUNNY ~ and keep out of my HUTCH

JOLENE called  ALAN a FOX ~ crafty with

A Big Tail !  He called her TASTY  CHICKEN !

Never played that game again ~ we're still FRIENDS !

Thanks for reading ~ Please comment ~ Love to all ~ BRIAN BEAR  XOX
