A little bit of erotica. As suggested by the instigator of our new forum.

Perhaps it would be better - then in the growing dusk...

That's lovely, jingl.
I don't think it needs a 'then'.

Thanks Ana . (Phew! Thought I might have upset everybody )

Not me. It's rather nice.

I like it.

Imaginative and original, wish I could write like that.

Thank you.

Yes. well written. The twist in the tale was what a twist should be - totally unexpected.

Good.

A bell rang and framed in the office doorway stood a young man clutching a bouquet of red roses.The five young women glanced up expectantly from their desks. "Wow! Then one declared " who are they for"

"Ah, the recipient knows" replied the young mam.

Quietly from the back of the office a gentle voice remarked"If there is no message and only 11 red roses they will be for me" Approaching the young man she counted the roses and took the bouquet saying. "Yes they are for me, eleven red roses for I am the twelfth,"

Silence ensued

That's very romantic. Sigh!

Not erotic, though...

Could be. Depending on how you take it....

I really liked it, another budding writer.

Many thanks . As a new kid on the block I wasnt sure about writing it. Eleven red roses with no message were first sent 48 years ago and and the unwritten message was "for you my darling are the twelfth " . They are still sent today. True story.

That's so romantic, brambleover.

I thought you were putting up a bit of erotica there anno.

I was looking forward to that.

More tea, vicar?

[grIn]

I did that right. Gransnet is broken.

Lying in bed
Warm tropical night
Dusty, sweaty bodies entwined
She then said
Do you think
We might
Have
A cup of tea?

Was that instead of a fag?
