Kiss With A Twist.......[marriage; Temptation; Humor]

Rating: 3.0


My wife was out of town for a week. It was time to have a treat.
So I took a cab to my favorite bistro to have myself a bite to eat.
It was as I prepared to return home that I glanced at a corner table.
I tried to pry my eyes away from her, but found I was not able.

What had caught my eye was candlelight reflecting from a silver gown,
worn by one forbidden to me since the aisle I walked my new bride down.
Inside the gown was one of the sweetest gifts God to men has given,
a young innocent, creamy-smooth-skinned morsel to which my body was driven.

I tried with all my might to resist this newly-found temptation,
But, alas, I believe it was too much dinner wine that was leading me to damnation.
The craving was too much for me; I felt like a child in Toy Land.
I warily approached her table, looked about, then took her in my hand.

I undressed her with my eyes during our ride to the hotel.
That I was in danger of disrupting my marriage, I could surely tell.
I ordered up a suite on the top floor, for myself and my forbidden sweet,
but I did not allow myself to indulge, until I'd pulled up our bed sheet.
My mouth was watering with desire, my lips were slightly held apart.
At last I consumed what my wife had forbidden, but which for years I'd craved with all my heart.

Until that moment she'd remained enclosed, in her silver gown.
I removed her wrapper and pulled her to my mouth, sucked repeatedly, and finally swallowed her down.

[....alternate ending, starting at "then took her in my hand."...]:

The ride through the dark streets was anxiety-filled, yet quiet.
I could wait no longer. I undressed her there and popped her in my mouth. There went a twelve-year diet.

(The KISS was a foil-
wrapped hershey kiss.)

Excellent point! ! Marriage does put a kibosh on all our cravings! ! Oh well but A kiss on the hand is quite continental... but a diamonds are girl's best friend.
