TODAY IS A DAY FOR BUMS
Today is a day for bums.
I am only a man
and whenever I can
I admire the women
in their cotton and linen.
Yes I do like a sneak
each day of the week
at a different part
of the female art.
One day it is hair
and another a pair
of boobs or knees
and all of them please.
But today is a day for bums.

Oh yes - yesterday was boobs, tomorrow its knees but today its definitely bums.
You peeping there? Is your name Tom?!
Yes I'm sometimes known as Tom - my Dad was a piper - do you like pork? - I've got some to spare.
O LA LA
Il faut declare
Au jour d'hui
Pour DERRIERE !
Thanks MIKE for a Saturday SMILE
Reminds me of the famous Spello
in the GUARDIAN "Arstits Wanted !"
Whe God made ADAM he took a good
look and thought I could do better than
that and created EVE !
Thanks for another stunning member of
the AMARILLADACAE ~ Brian
Please check today's Poem !
Re God making Eve _ I remember my Dad in a light hearted moment, after a few words with Mum, saying: He only had to make two sexes and he still got one wrong!
As for the amaryllidaceae - they are quite stunning aren't they !
Thanks MIKE ~ It was not so much that GOD mad a mistake with you and I ~ rather He gave us a challenge for us to make Men of ourselves ! Eve is a product of the old adage of HENRY FORD "The Second Edition is always than the Prototype" The MODEL T had a REAR VIEW mirror ! Yours BRIAN
Michael,
I feel sorry for any bum in the street...especially in the winter...freezing their bum off! Lol
My first laugh of the day!
A great write for an enjoyable read and a beautiful pic to please the eyes!
Totally Awesome...

the idea of the poem had me smiling my head off even before I put any words on paper - thanks Laura
When I saw the word ābumā, my Italian/American mind first thought was about bums boozing it up in the street!...and then realized what you were referring to! So I joked around a bit with the two meanings! (The bum freezing his bum off.) š¤£
Ahhh...The beauty of language!
