42

42 what a size
suppose it's the booby prize
some find them a treat
a long time since I seen my feet
buttons used to pop
now they just flop
of men I despair
their eyes focus 'there'
it's hard not to look like a tart
they cover a really big heart

Sueb According to THHGTTU

42 is the ultimate answer to life, the universe, and everything.
I suppose they are right LOL..
At least someone like that cannot fall flat on their face.
Just thinking aloud, or is it not allowed to think, Yours Sparrow.
PS:- I think I nearly dropped a boob there????? Shush Sparrow you will wake Ian.T.

Hello Sue.

As the husband of a woman graced with a size of 44-FF, I find myself in the unenviable position of being one of those men that you despair of, and often find myself castigated, in spite of 21 years of marriage.

Heehee.

I love this poem, Sue, it is simple, funny, and oh so true.

do you know

if women had a 42
then after 42
they 'll never be able to see their feet .....

and if men were 42
then they won't be able to see that
even when tis on
and you know the girth of those
who eat junk food
what men ....wow..
