LADY OF THE HEATH

A VERY SILLY, FUN POEM I WROTE MANY MOONS AGO....IT MADE MY FATHER SMILE XXX

I REMEMBER THE FIRST DAY I SAW YOU DEAR

YOU WERE WALKING ON A WIND SWEPT HEATH

YOU CAUGHT A BREEZE AND SNEEZED OUT LOUD

AND YOUR DOG ENDED UP WEARING YOUR TEETH

OH HOW YOUR HAIR SWAYED IN THE BREEZE

IT WAS THE COLOUR OF RUSTY TIN

IT LOOKED SO VERY THICK AND DARK

AS IT SPROUTED FROM YOUR CHIN

I REMEMBER HOW WE KISSED THAT AUTUMN NIGHT

HOW WE HELD EACH OTHER NEAR
YOU SUCKED SO HARD UPON MY TONGUE

IT EMERGED RIGHT THROUGH YOUR EAR

OH, WHAT AN ANIMAL LOVER YOU WERE DEAR

YOUR PASSION , IT KNEW NO BOUNDS

AND HOW YOU SURPRISED ME THAT LOVERS EVE

WHEN I CAUGHT YOU IN BED WITH THE HOUNDS

I REMEMBER YOU AS THE GIRL I ONCE KNEW

IN MY MIND YOU'RE STILL WALKING THAT HEATH

AND EVEN THOUGH THAT DAY HAS LONG GONE

AT LEAST YOU'RE NOW WEARING YOUR TEETH
