Toys Aren't Just for Boys

Toys Aren't Just for Boys

A Poem by CrochetRie
"

Just being silly

"

While you're out fishin'

with beer drinkin Bud

Bullshit dishin'

Chewin' the cud

 

Hook Line and sinker

Fishin' Rod goes down

Face turning pinker

Catch about to crown

 

"A mermaid, I see?'

Rippling water stilled

On stabled knee

The portside she spilled

 

"They really exist!"

You shout in her face

Lips to be kissed.

In Mangled imbrace.

 

In awe, your friend stares

Wondering, still dazed

About nightmares

Completely amazed.

 

Tellin' your story

Down at corner pub

And it's glory.

Gives you a nub.

 

Frozen to bar bench

Flirt you are by name.

A Coctail wench

Your hopin' she's game.

 

Bragging to your pals

'Bout the "fish" you caught

Comparing to gals

The mermaid you faught.

 

Out hunting with friends

Deep into the wood

Gossiping hens,

Of course understood.

 

While you were away

Bud gave me a call

Total dismay

Said your story's tall

 

While you kissed silly

Bud continued on

"She's no philly!

I beg your pardon!"

 

So, while you're obsessed

Distracted and awed

Feeling quite blessed

By mermaid fraud.

 

With my sea creatures

I've been quite busy

Some with ten features.

That make me dizzy.

 

With my Pearl Dolphin

I'm getting it on

Cheating's a sin

But not while your gone!!

Definitely entertaining. While I tend to write on the darker side of things, I enjoy things that are pointless and silly, just because they are pointless and silly. I'd really like to see more like this, as this kept me moving through the verses, smiling all the way. There's always a fish story somewhere.

Ha! "My Pearl Dolphin". Nice ;-) I really enjoyed the light-hearted, fun tone to this piece. I adore fishing so at first I was kind of like, 'that's not just an activity for men' but once I got to the end I appreciate what you were trying to say.

One line here bothers me though;
"Comparing gals
The mermaid you faught."
I think the word 'to' should be after 'gals' before 'the'. It would read better that way in my mind.
