@ 27.225 MHz: Brief Discussion From The Plantagenet Era, From 1974 [Revised Repost]
Richard? That is true but some say it shocks:
that he asked to be named Governor of the North,
and one nice day they gladly sallied forth---
he, and his Lady, Anne, with just a few servants.
He and his Lady claim to be very much in love
in a court where friendships are unstable as silt;
temporary alliances are the courtiers' common lot.
The court provides too much free company:
that often leads to whispered calumny.
Richard and Anne prefer only their intimacy
to be enjoyed nightly in the cold North's privacy;
after a supper provides the culinary prelude
to their mutual and giggly amorous mood.
On their bed is a most enormous, hand-stitched quilt.
Beneath it, or so I have been quietly told,
they will never be distracted by the cold;
but even cuddled together and totally nude
(unpurse those lips, I am not being rude!),
they will be delectably warm, even hot,
spending their nights' long hours in breathless pleasure
through all of its variations without measure
for only they can count and value that sum---
how many times over and without number,
until, at dawn, even the sun will rise and come
in windowed pink light, as they begin to slumber..
And Lady Anne is such a curvacious fox!
Lord Richard adores her with such fervence.
