Question:I knew an old man
He had tons of life lessons
As well as knowledge

He would teach me things
That only wise folks would know
I heard every word

He carried a coin
But he would often drop it
So I asked him why

This is what he said,
"Ladies will help an old man,
and at that moment"

"When they pick it up,
My son, then you will enjoy
Their fruitful bossoms"

  • That is a wise old man indeed! He's my kind of guy. =)

    LOL, bet you learned those lessons well!
    Good one!

    Wow, I like it.
    Very nice:)

    you'er a wise guy but no poet

    Bossoms are awful things and should never be stared at less, eyes turn red and mouth agape and face turn to stone. Now bosoms, that is a finery worth pondering with the eyes. Are you starting to practice already to take your role as a "dirty old man?"

    Ha! This is precious. Drat, I seem to have dropped my nickel as well. Would one of you ladies care to help me?

    A triumphal fusion of fine artistry, great wisdom, and down to earth practicality. Bravo!
    P.S. Even though I admire both, a "bossom" needs only one "s."
