Cougar


Vicky’s a stunning woman, yet

She’s getting older and she’s bored

She de-sexed her rich old husband;

Her financial assets soared

 

She slinks out of the courtroom 

Nibbling a yellow feather

Inspects her cherry lipstick;

Smoothes her fine Italian leather

 

She calls her cunning girlfriends

To propose a night of scouting;

Join in her favorite pastime

Of females-out-a–prowling

 

At her favored hot spot

She surveys the ‘menu’s’ fare;

Spots a tanned and blue-eye cowboy

Sporting jeans with jet black hair

 

She stalks her handsome victim,

Like a cat out on the chase

Slanting up beside him

She shifts with easy grace

 

She studies her young prey

Like a mouse beneath a glass

Gets his complete attention

When she slyly strokes his ass

 

With a purr of promised pleasure

He falls right into her snare;

Here begins the scandal

Of a cougar’s wild affair… 

 

The feline re-incarnate

Purrs with her sated pleasure;

Shares a satisfying smile

With her younger virile treasure

Woo Hoo, Cougarville

We didn't call them cougars back when and I won't say haw far back when. *LOL* Good write my friend. Odd isn't it, we have dirty old men and cougars. Seems somehow unfair. *L* Respectfully, Rett: “Anyone who sacrifices liberty for security deserves neither.” Benjamin Franklin

ah yes, the cougar

we of the baby boomer generation refuse to sit down in our rocking chairs funny write tonya just on a quick crit - i think you could find closer rhyme in verse 3 my suggestion - 'She calls her cunning girlfriends To propose a night of scouting; Join in her favorite pastime Of females-out-a–prowling' (of a prowling females outing) and also i think perhaps a couple of word changes - 'She stalks her handsome victim, Like a cat out on the chase (Slanting) up beside him (sidling) She (shifts) with easy grace' (moves) and then too - 'With a purr of promised pleasure (with the purr of pleasure promised) He falls right into her snare;' i just love the way she 'slinks out of the courtroom Nibbling a yellow feather' and that she has 'cunning' girlfriends funny write as i said tonya love judy xxxx http://www.strategicpublishinggroup.com/title/TwentyMyPrettyPonies.html

:) Thanks Judy..

I implemented most of your suggestions! Some of the words I had tried and changed (sliding/slanting}. I liked the pleasure promised and.. thought 'of a prowling-females- outing' did rhyme better. I left shifts witheasy grace cause 'move' wouldn't rhyme! Glad you saw the humor. I don't usually write humor. was fun though and i have worked and stared at this one for a week! lol, all input was greatly appreciated. Thanks Again. Sincerely, Tonya

(and no, i have no 'father' issues!... i just find age and experience sexy) anthony hopkins...i'd drink his bath-water cheers p
