A Penguin named Jane

In my dreams
I see you dancing
naked on the sand
veils dropping
pearlescent skin
rosebud nipples
and a waxed netherland,
awake me from sleep

In my days
I see you in the kitchen
in boxers and a singlet
whether it be a dream
or in my waking days
I've never wanted you more
never loved you more

You are my people
and I am yours
I am your Penguin
for life

Oh I love this. I didn't do that much but I'm glad if I could assist you.

Your Jane is an angel for putting up with your work schedule lol. I know it makes your days together that much more special.

I'm blushing because of one thing and you know why hahaha. Just don't write about our Janes and mines visits to your know where, I'll slap your ass.

I actually wouldn't change a thing I can't wait for you to show her tell me what she thought!!

Much love Always OJ xox

I can only assume this is somewhat of a personal statement you two have made to each other. Penguins mate for life and a lot of cooperation goes into their relationships and family units.

Well done,
Tim

Soz for the late reply, as an engineer my job takes me everywhere. Seren-Jayne is a close friend of my wife and myself. We live in the same town. She's good people. We love her. My Jane is my Penguin we've been together for all our lives since we were young-uns.

Thanks for the comment.

Cheers Latham
