Question: Is this a Granny Luc Bat answer!?
I used Granny's rhyme sequence words to create this answer!

A One-sided Affair, Answered!

women it can be said,
live large as if they really know,
money makes it all go
and to do this hubbies must thrive!.
teasing does help them strive
tempt and tantalize very well
and they will battle hell!.
a smile, perfume and nightie show
the man will grovel low
while waiting you must show a cry
let him love, sound a sigh!.
show to him the twin sight of those
to keep him in his throes!.
for of all the tools these are friends
and always make amends
A lady dear needs money bliss
all it takes…tickly kiss!.
trained well he works but for a chance
to exercise… his lance!.
whatever jewels you wish be
let him think liberty
to get ahead take him abed!Www@QuestionHome@Com

The poem is great!. I really enjoy response poems and it is impressive how you used her end rhymes to create the response!. I hate to tell you that the rhyme scheme is not completely correct!. The 6th syllable of each 8 syllable line is supposed to rhyme with the last word in the line above it!. Then, the last word in line below the 8 syllable line rhymes with the last word in the 8 syllable line!. Still a very good poem though!.

Here is the rhyme scheme if you are interested!.

6* * * * * a
8* * * * * a * b
6* * * * * b
8* * * * * b * c
6* * * * * c
8* * * * * c * d
6* * * * * d
8* * * * * d * aWww@QuestionHome@Com
