Bjorn's given words:

cotyledon - first leaves to appear from a germinating seed.
myg - Myg of the planet Lythyl is a fictional superhero
boutonniere - a spray of flowers worn in a buttonhole.
pone - unleavened maize bread

dram - a small drink of whisky or other spirits:
phonograph - a gramophone (given word ponograph

“Make no mistake it is not my nature
to be caught skyclad
in the buff in the open
I'm clad in the Stars and Stripes
today prompted by strong patriotism
on this auspicious Veterans Day
It might appear flimsy and loosely
draped over my olive smooth and perfumed
skin. I would love to throw open emulating a
cotyledon and surprise everyone and you’ll
ogle all you want
For I am fully clothed under these wraps
in hotpants. But still it’ll leave some of the DOM
panting salivating at the mouth. No, I’ll not do that
for the veteran’s sake but just stay
home in quiet anticipation
I’m waiting for my Myg
who is normally
formally dressed complete with a boutonniere
but
not for long when I’m through with him
Instead we’ll have a few drams to liven up
things just a little and skipping the pone for later.
There’ll be soft jazz in the background, no not
from the
phonograph which is just for show but the
real thing to set him up.
If you detect an evil smile in
me it is because I’m a vixen going for the
kill!
He’ll fall for it I've known him that long to fall
for
it. After all it had been 48 hours since we’ve first
met and that’s long enough!"

48 hours is long enough :)
ReplyDeleteGreat expression. I thought on similar lines too :)
Interesting take - some nice lines too - skyclad in the buff - a good turn of phrase.
ReplyDeleteMost interesting Hank. Good read and written well.
ReplyDelete48 hours is enough time for somethings
ReplyDeletehaha much can happen in the buff, 48 hours plenty of time
ReplyDeleteA lot can happen in two days!
ReplyDeleteHank, this is superb! I like the glory within her story! Do tell!
ReplyDeleteinteresting...yes!
ReplyDeleteNimble, sharp and witty...
ReplyDeleteso clever!
ReplyDeleteGiggle...I like that you gave her hot pants underneath...
ReplyDeleteStill I'd prefer The skyclad version :-) ponograph does exist and is an instrument that measures pain ;-)
ReplyDeleteThanks Bjorn. Somehow I missed this in the on-line dictionary I accessed ! It is very relevant if included
DeleteHank
I really liked "skyclad in the buff."
ReplyDeleteI'm with Sherry, "skyclad in the buff" made me grin.
ReplyDeleteAnd "fully clothed under these wraps
in hotpants" left me thinking.
I like that you've given her some grace, beneath ~
