Something maths based was the prompt
for Poetry Thursday today… I know I don’t
link, but thought I would have some fun
**********************************
He has a secret formula
A consummate performer
He’s perfected being oscular
And muscular and jocular
Knows how to keep me warmer
No pain, no stress, no trauma
He has found an old equation
That with a little concentration
A degree of oooh, vibration
Then some gentle persuasion
And a detailed demonstration
I squeal on each occasion
He says its down to fractions
And a physical attraction
A kinda chemical reaction
A little adding and subtraction
The angle of interaction
That guarantees our satisfaction

Ha! You could set this one to music, and it would sing like Gilbert and Sullivan!

Very clever! How is it that so many poems this week equate love (or some such…) with math? Hmm…

Fun! Very good turn on the subject!
Thank you for your support and kind words. I believe I have a new blogger friend.
What should we call blogger friends, or is there already a word for it?
Floggers? Umm, no.
Froggers? Nope.
Bliends? Hard to figure out pronunciation.
Why do we Americans have to combine words? The French hated the term “Chunnel” and I don’t blame them lol.

oooh she feels the kharma
freely riding that llama
all thoughts of math
thrown down the path
(see how awful I am at rhyming? lol)
Love your swift-paced euphemistic poem. Terrific rhythm (in all areas)…
at home with ann
