POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
My erotic poems enable me to express the joys of sex in ways not otherwise possible. My other poems are largely about the beauty of nature and the threats the environment faces.]
Cuddles; a dilemma of bereavement
Cuddling is a therapy everyone can enjoy,
With a soulmate,or friend it's easy to employ,
But those of us who have become bereft;
Whose lover has died or left
Our bed has become an empty nest
What shall we do for the best.
Who can step in to take the place
Of the one you used to embrace?
Relatives and friends may sympathize,
There is rarely one who can deputize;
Mourning the loss of a friend or lover
Does not leave space to discover
Who may be right to clear the blues
To cuddle up and even snooze.
A new relationship...

Cuddling
Hugging is a way of greeting
When two friends are meeting
Fully clothed, maybe a kiss.
Everyone is doing this.
With closer friends more is needed
A longer cuddle is conceded,
Outdoor cloths can be discarded
But modesty is well regarded.
With closest friends if secluded
A few steps to become denuded;
Bodies touching skin to skin,
It puts the senses in a spin.

Pandemic Blues
The pandemic lockdown was a time
A strangers bed you could not climb
You must keep two metres apart
How on earth can sex start
Abstinence was necessary
Fear of illness so scary
Vaccination was long coming
Having sex I was shunning
They say if you don't use it
You will soon loose it
Resuming sex after a year and a half
Will my performance be cry or laugh?
I was in luck, in spite of my age
My genitals remembered how to engage.
My performance was no worse
Than before this viral curse,
I am...

Be My Friend
Your friendship is good for me,
Helped to make me feel free
Cleared my mind of the bruise
When I suffered the blues.
Thank you for your concern
When my mood has a downturn,
Let me help when you have strife
Try to ease your troubled life,
Mutual friendship; we should try
To help each other by and by
Helped to make me feel free
Cleared my mind of the bruise
When I suffered the blues.
Thank you for your concern
When my mood has a downturn,
Let me help when you have strife
Try to ease your troubled life,
Mutual friendship; we should try
To help each other by and by

Choice of Three
The three were not quite naked
Their panties hid their charms
They approached with broad smiles
No need to raise alarms
They danced round with gay abandon
Slid their panties to their knees
Was this an invitation
Or just a big prick tease
They asked me which
I would like to fuck
I was so pleased
To have such luck
I needed to sample them all
to try to make the choice
We decided on a foursome
So that all could rejoice
Their panties hid their charms
They approached with broad smiles
No need to raise alarms
They danced round with gay abandon
Slid their panties to their knees
Was this an invitation
Or just a big prick tease
They asked me which
I would like to fuck
I was so pleased
To have such luck
I needed to sample them all
to try to make the choice
We decided on a foursome
So that all could rejoice

Whatever the weather
The forecast was for sun,no rain
But they got it wrong again.
I planned a visit to the sea
On the beach to walk free
A trek from road to coast
Expecting in the sun to roast,
But clouds covered the sky
The forecast was a real lie
When I arrived on the sand
No chance of getting tanned
Rain started to fall from the sky
How can I keep my clothes dry?
Into backpack went my clothes
To the rain my skin expose
Gambolling nude on the shingle
The rain soon made my skin tingle
A quick dip made me no...

Summer Freedom
It is now May and the air was warmer
The sun was out and the wind much calmer
An expedition to the local beach
A walk enabled me to reach
A lonely expanse of sand
Where nudity is not banned
Skin exposed to wind and sun
Better feelings there are none
Walking wading and sun bathing
Satisfies a natural craving
To discard all life's concerns
The temporary relief that one yearns.

The Conversation
A stunning redhead in a floral dress
agreed to dance with me
As we danced we began to talk
on subjects wide and free
We agreed to meet again
and learned to live our life
Our conversation has continued
My soulmate and my wife
Alas the conversation has ceased
after 63 long years
We talked about so many things
our hopes and out fears
News, philosophy politics and banter;
no subject was taboo,
My heart is full of memories
too precious to eschew
agreed to dance with me
As we danced we began to talk

We agreed to meet again

My soulmate and my wife
Alas the conversation has ceased
after 63 long years
We talked about so many things
our hopes and out fears
News, philosophy politics and banter;
no subject was taboo,
My heart is full of memories
too precious to eschew
