Awww, Sandra, I loved it. So you saw the picture to be a woman of pleasure, for men to come and enjoy. A very good take on this I would say. Well done. Ulla xxx

Yes, but to enjoy her home made apple pie, Ulla, nothing else! LOL. Thanks my friend, I'm glad you enjoyed it! Have you spoken to Alexis lately? I think she's still in Scotland. I'm hoping to chat to her later, if she is on line. Thanks again, my dear friend. :) Sandra xxx
-
Uhhh, are you sure? hehehe. Yes, I spoke to Alexis just before she left. She's back from Scotland on the the 29th. xx
-
I thought it was about then. Let's hope she's had a good time. We couldn't get to go to visit her this year after all, so we've told her we are hoping for the Spring. Fingers crossed all will be good for then. xx
-
I have a feeling that Alexis is settling in. She sounds so upbeat when we speak. I hope and think I'm right.xx
Comment from Cumbrianlass
HAHA! Love it. I confess I KNEW you were building up to something other than what most folk might have assumed. Well done, Sandra. The Brits, I think, are the best at 'double entendre',
Solid rhymes and a smooth flow - great poem!

I was soooo shocked, Av, at how all the reviewers thought it was something other than apple pie the men were waiting for!!! LOL I think they should all wash their minds out with carbolic soap! ~Thanks, my friend, I'm glad you enjoyed it. :) Sandra xx
Comment from Jay Squires
Oh, Sandra! You did it with this poem! You captured each and every reader with the promised salacity of purchased conquest, only to find the prize was a slice of home-made apple pie! Bravo!

LOL, Jay, I was giggling when I wrote that last line, I wondered how many reviewers would realise what I was going for. I can't thank you enough for the 6 stars, my friend, I'm so happy you enjoyed my fun poem. Big hugs, and a big thank you. :) Sandra xxx
Comment from Jim Lorson Sr
Sandra, you really kept the true theme of this poem so well veiled until the final two lines. You did an excellent piece of writing this with really good smooth easy flow and great rhyming scheme! Very well done my friend,,,,,,,,,love you Sandra,,,,,,,Jim
It seems like have been lost! I rarely post anymore, because my mind is stagnant. My life is stagnant, every time I turn around something is attacking me! Cancer, cancer and more cancer. I have decided with whatever the cancer is, I am going to do NOTHING, because I am done!

Thank you so much, my dearest friend. It was a fun poem to write.
I was really upset to read your next part. Oh Jim, this is so unlike the fighting spirit of the man I have grown to love over the last few years. I can only imagine how hard it is for you, I've seen my late husband, my father, and now my brother fighting this cursed illness, and know how hard it is. You are allowed to feel this way, you are allowed to feel sorry for yourself, (my goodness, I would!) and you are allowed to question, why me? What has really brought this on. Jim? The last time we 'spoke' you had found a new love, and everything was going so well. Has something happened? E-mail me, my friend. Don't sit at home feeling so depressed, let's talk it through. Love you lots, my dear friend. God bless and keep you safe. xxxxx

Ha! You had me going there for a while. This didn't sound like you at all.

Good poem with great rhyme and flow. You "done" good with the picture challenge. 8-)

Comment from Unspoken94
What a set up! We all walked through that door with very
different expectations. I'm guilty. Apple pie was not on
my wanter list. But wonderfully written. I felt only one "bump"
in the last stanza, but no big deal. -Bill

Comment from Domino 2
Very clever, and sad, Sandra, to state how some men feel the need to visit a prostitute, but afterwards yearn for home-cooking (and perhaps the wife, too. LOL)
Excellent meter.
Your rhymes work well too, and the AABB scheme is necessary for me at least to remember them with such long lines.
Very original and entertaining.
Cheers, Ray xx

Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written and a very interesting interpretation of the wonderful picture of the woman in the golden dress. I can nearly smell that apple pie. Lol.
