The attraction of an autumn gown

While lust
shook the fruits
off the tree
love was the foundation
cultivating the union
of two hearts together
the tree and soil
living as one.

When the tall evergreen
fell in love
with the deciduous tree
she blushed
baring all to see.

Startled, a dog did a poo
then cocked his leg
christened the tree
and ran off
barking with pure
delight.

Word got around
for the coconut tree
dropped his load
killing the little offender.

Should have used a doggy bag.

Ring around the Roses had a meaning when I was born… but no one talked about it. But your Poem reminds me of a Game that could be sung as a Folk 🎶 before we pass and Elephants become our Pets… now that’s a lot of fertilizer!
Barely awake at nine pm on Thursday December 15, 2022… Merry Christmas and Be Blessed. gently, Pat
