We're invited to explore erotica for Poetics Tuesday.
I'm reminded of a courtly old southern gentleman
who once explained it to me thusly, "Ah always say,
Miss Beverly, if the wit outweighs the vulgarity it's
a good story". I pretty much agree. For my offering,
a pair of mildly bawdy limericks.

********************
There once was a fellow quite charming
Who went by the name of Bruce
He was attracted to all the girls
But preferred the ones who were loose
***********
There once was a lady named Sadie
Who was wondrously well endowed
Her friend was smartest in the class
But it was Sadie who drew a crowd
A blog for the midnight epiphanies and idle thoughts of a hopeless wordaholic.
They sound like a perfect match for each other..
ReplyDeleteBruce and Sadie what a perfect couple.
Good times are what some prefer I guess. I enjoyed these bawdy poems Bev.
ReplyDeleteThis is absolutely lovely, Bev!❤️ Thank you so much for writing to the prompt 🥰
ReplyDeleteSmiles.
ReplyDeleteHaha! That was so much fun, Beverly!
ReplyDeleteHahaha! This is so funny. I agree with Bjorn--they deserve each other.
ReplyDeleteI wondered how you would handle this challenge ... humor is a good way to go. I am stymied as I have family who read my poems.
ReplyDeleteGood write! Haha
ReplyDeleteI bet those two would be a lot of fun at parties. Nicely done!
ReplyDeleteFun, saucy rhymes Beverly ☺️
ReplyDeleteLighthearted and lovely - made me smile.
ReplyDeleteLove your great rhymes. I think we all knew both a Bruce and a Sadie!!
ReplyDeleteI have been writing a romantic dreamy erotica in my fiction, which tends to pack in a lot of emotion. I really like to attempt a more bawdy or "slap & tickle" style sometimes just for some relief, especially in poetry. It's fun in comparison with the emotion that goes into some of my other work.
ReplyDeleteHaha. Sadie drew a crowd. Great and humorous takes on the prompt, Bev.
ReplyDeleteI remember Bruce and Sadie, I like the gentle humour too.
ReplyDeleteYou have to laugh, don't you? Even at the most sacred of institutions.
