Plaster Work Poem by Tom Billsborough
Plaster Work
An evening stroll along the path,
Venus rising from her daily bath
And just ahead an even lovelier sight,
Two moons arising in the pale moonlight,
A lady bending over in white pants.
I introduced myself with one intent
And following a very, very brief chat,
Suggested that I'd like a plaster cast of that!
She laughed and said: "You have an awful cheek."
"But you have two, " I answered. "They are sleek
And would sit nicely on my mantelpiece,
In the place of honour, if you please."
"I'll discuss it with my boyfriend in a while, "
She answered with a disengaging smile.
We went our separate ways, I'm sad to say.
The space has been reserved there to this day! "
No black eyes but no plaster cast!

A lady bending over in white pants. I introduced myself with one intent And following a very, very brief chat, Suggested that I'd like a plaster cast of that! ..........first part gave me a chuckle; last line, a laugh to MyPoemList! (to be continued) .....
I suppose it's a matter of opinion. Certainly an eyeful of shapeliness!
Venus rising from her daily bath Excellent imagery to describe the panorama of the nature at that hour. Thanks for sharing.10 points.
