Touching....and going.
Sleeping, topless, deeply rested
She was so superbly-breasted
That I felt I must –unheeded - sneak
And tweak them a reverential tweak.
So stretching timorously… slow,
(Intending just to touch…and go)
I inched toward her gingerly
Till – cruelly and disastrously -
My feet (both) skidded under me!
Propelling me head-longingly.
(And turning my adoring touch
Into a crude, lascivious clutch!)
It`s painful now to tell the rest:
How she woke and found me `at` her chest,
And rained me a rapid rain of blows
That shattered both my teeth and nose.
(As this sad tale just goes to show:
Never (illicitly) touch and go.)

Thanks all,
I think it was the jelloid giganticism of that photo in John`s poem that made me (even at my age) recall all my old memories about when they used to be genuine.
John...???...the mind boggles...I bet you`ve made a lot of very knowing wives smile to themselves.
