    Temptation Next Door

    "What would be your want, kind sir?"
    She said in a whisper.
    "Nothing more than this, my dear,"
    He said as he gazed her.

    "Would not you like to come inside?"
    She said with half-closed eyes.
    "And give them all good rumors lied?"
    He said of neighbor spies.

    "But this noon could serve you well,"
    She said to temp him more.
    "But our mates would pay us hell!"
    He said then left her, sore.



    A classic from the one and only Barbara's Cat.

    If Peter J. Ross ever returns he might have a photograph of Barbara's Cat, as they were very friendly for several years.
