A little bit of Christmas anticipation for you, but you'll have to check back throughout the day to find out what they got!

It was ideas of Christmas that made Bodie say,
"Goodwill to all men! You fancy it Ray?
If the idea appals you, you never have said,
but if its a good one, why not come to bed?"

With infinite shyness, Doyle lowered his gaze.
Then slowly he smiled, his eyes all ablaze.
Quickly releasing a breath that he'd held,
Bodie gave thanks that Ray wasn't repelled.

With confidence growing, they both took a hand,
then moved for the bedroom, a warm promised land.
But just at the threshold, Ray paused by the door.
"There's just one thing scares me, what if I want more?"

"A bit of fun's nice and I never say never,
But fun is just that, whilst love is forever."
The soft spoken words turned Bodies eyes wet
"If forever's on offer, forever you'll get."

The loving was gentle then frantic and free.
Then after they sat by the lights of the tree.
Their newly made promise still warming their hearts,
whilst gently mulled Sauvignon warmed other parts.

And when they returned to the warmth of the bed,
Tired thoughts of happiness filled Bodies head.
'I'll get him a present, just something to keep,
to show how I love him and how very deep.'

And as Doyle drifted he thought the same thing.
'I must get him something to make his heart sing.
A thanks for his love to remind him of me,
A small little keepsake but what could it be?'

To be continued......

Great poetry!!
Very, very nice and warm fluffy poem, thanks for sharing and I do wonder what they'll get each other.

(I had difficulties reading, because the letters are so light on my setting. I hope that's just my problem....)

Is it me? I can't see anything apart from the two snowflake pictures!

I'm getting it as white-on-white, but highlighting makes it show up. I owe you a big thank-you, by the way, but have been too miserable with flu to even sit at the computer for more than a few minutes these last couple of days - just starting to hope I'm over the worst! Sorry about being so rude!

You? Rude? Impossible!

Sorry to hear you've been suffering with the flu, hope you're on the mend now.

And yay! I can read the text now!

Aw, thank you - I am a bit better now, juuuust starting to feel slightly less like something-the-cat-threw-up at last! :-) Been a nasty couple of days, but not quite so grotty now so much more cheerful. Thank you!

I had the same problem. Couldn't click to highlight on my phone, but got to the desktop computer, and highlighted it and it is all there - and well worth reading!

Aha!

I can read it now! *g*

Very nice, I'm enjoying this! And want to see the pressies, of course! *g*

(PS I get the text as white-on-white, so have to highlight to read, and I see that londonronnie may possibly have the same invisi-text problem as I do - wasn't sure if you meant it to be white-on-white?)

I'm loving this so far! "If forever's on offer, forever you'll get."
Squee!
I'm not having any problems reading it, but it could be because I use a brown background and the white text shows up beautifully.

This is great!

The loving was gentle then frantic and free.
Then after they sat by the lights of the tree.
Their newly made promise still warming their hearts,
whilst gently mulled Sauvignon warmed other parts.

Aww!

I started with the next entry and went backwards - whoops - so I know part of what's coming, and I am really looking forward to the rest.

Not normally, but this Christmas I shall have to - I have lost one that I have bought for someone else, and I must find it!

Aww... Lovely story! It made my day! Um, the color of text is very faint, isn't it! Or does this just occur on my app?
Anyway, thank you so much!

Yes!

Off I go to read it all...

A wonderful line!

"A bit of fun's nice and I never say never,
But fun is just that, whilst love is forever."


This was a wonderfully warm bit of poetry. Well done.

Oh, this was fun - I wanted to wait until I had time to read properly rather than being frantic with work and unable to reply properly, and it was well worth it! Off to see what it was now - and joy, I know there's more than one post to catch up on! *g* Thank you!

I enjoyed this a ;ot, thank you. You ticked the boxes - rhyme & metre - without which fan poetry is hmm, not the greatest - and you told a sweet tale.
