These Brown Legs Won't Stay Yours Forever Poem by Marie WardAlonge

Where have you been my once sweet man?
Coming home around ten smelling like gin.
You are out with your boys having a good time.
While I am at home listen to the wind chimes.

You have been like ice cream I have to say.
I know I should not have it but I want it anyway.
Loving you has been bittersweet.
You have tested my patience
And that's no easy feat.

Oh, how you can enrich me with your so many lies.
You take pride in your wording.
I can see it in your eyes.
However, keep this in mind while you smile.
With a lady's grace and a dancer's style,
I can wrap these long legs around you for miles.

Jump back rabbit and jump back quick.
You eat too many salads for us to click.
I know you are charming.
I know you are clever.
You are my sweet temptation but
These brown legs won't stay yours forever.
