Two to Choose

Two to Choose

A Poem by David Lewis Paget
"

"
The sisters Newell were a shining jewel
That would pass my understanding,
We met at night when the moon was white
Out on the communal landing,
One was blonde, was a demi monde
The other brunette to the shoulder,
The legs of the blonde were lean and long
The brunette a little bit older.

I fell in love with them both at once
I think it was what they wanted,
For both, well versed in extravagance
Their ego’s, each were undaunted,
The blonde would stalk in her Baby Doll
Next to her window, extended,
The other, naked, would read a book
Sprawling in view and bed-ended.

The blonde was the first to invite me in,
The other said she felt stranded,
We sat together like kith and kin
It’s lucky that I am left handed,
They asked which one did I like the best,
I said, ‘Now that would be telling.’
And kissed them both on the lips, to test
As the tears in their eyes were welling.

I had the choice, there were two to choose
The blonde had said she was willing,
The brunette said she was mine to lose,
I tossed for them with a shilling.
The blonde, I knew her as Flirty Anne
Picked heads, and lost in the tossing,
The other, I knew as Dirty Pam
Was out in the bathroom, flossing.

Those hard decisions.
"I had the choice, there were two to choose
The blonde had said she was willing,
The brunette said she was mine to lose,"
I liked the above lines. Was a win or lose situation. Thank you David for sharing the amazing poetry. I hope you and family are having a safe and fun holiday.

Well David, there goes the theory that Blondes have more fun. Even if I was Demi monde, or of loose morals, I'd hate to lose by a coin toss. As the Poet would say, he was tossing while she was flossing...lol. No ghosts in this one, Or is there??? Barbz
