The Naked Grotto Poem by David Lewis Paget

Down in the grotto we'd go to swim
Whenever the tide was high
And pouring into the basin there,
At low tide it was dry,
I'd go with the Percival sisters
Who would laugh and call and dive,
While bursting out of their suits, it seemed
A time to be alive.

While Carolyn had the bigger breasts
Brittany had the thighs,
Carolyn had the sweetest smile
But Brittany had the eyes,
I never could choose between them for
I loved them both the same,
They'd flaunt themselves in the grotto pool
To them it was just a game.

The light would glimmer within the cave
Reflect off the grotto walls,
And from the roof would echo again
The sound of the girls catcalls,
We'd swim, then climb on a ledge of rock
To dry ourselves in the air,
And listen to water lapping in
From the mouth of the cave out there.

They often would try to bully me
To say who I loved the best,
I'd always say that I loved them both
And they'd say I failed the test,
So one day, standing upon the ledge
They both peeled their costumes off,
And said, ‘now tell us the one you love
Or haven't you seen enough.'

The sisters' beauty caught at my throat
And took the most of my breath,
I'd never seen them naked before
Nor since, I swear on my death,
I couldn't answer, so they got mad
And flung me into the pool,
Then swam around me, breasts and legs
Determined to play the fool.

Brittany trapped me between her thighs
While Carolyn pushed me down,
The water swirled at my head so long
I thought I was going to drown,
But finally they'd had enough of me
Holding me down, submersed,
And I shot up to the surface then
Thinking my lungs would burst.

It's years since ever we went to swim
Together again, all three,
For finally I had to make a choice,
Which one would marry me.
Brittany's now my loving wife
For I found between her thighs,
In the grotto swim, when she squeezed me in,
The truth in a world of lies.
