I'z jus' thankin' 'bout y'all this valentine's day.

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Collards is green my dog's name is Blue

and I'm so lucky to have a sweet thang like you.




Yore hair is like cornsilk a-flapping in the breeze

Softer than Blue's and without all them fleas.




You move like the bass, which excite me in May.

You ain't got no scales but I luv you anyway.




Yo're as satisfy'n as okry jist a-fry'n in the pan.

Yo're as fragrant as "snuff" right out of the can.



You have som'a yore teeth, for which I am proud;

I hold my head high when we're in a crowd.




On special occasions, when you shave under yore arms,

well, I'm in hawg heaven, and awed by yore charms.




Still them fellers at work, they all want to know,

what I did to deserve such a purdy, young doe.




Like a good roll of duct tape yo're there fer yore man,

to patch up life's troubles and fix what you can.




Yo're as cute as a junebug a-buzzin' overhead.

You ain't mean like those far ants I found in my bed.




Cut from the best cloth like a plaid flannel shirt,

you spark up my life more than a fresh load of dirt.




When you hold me real tight like a padded gunrack,

my life is complete; Ain't nuttin' I lack.




Yore complexion, it's perfection, like the best vinyl sidin'.

despite all the years, yore age, it keeps hidin'.




Me 'n' you's like a Moon Pie with a RC cold drank,

we go together like a skunk goes with stank.




Some men, they buy chocolate for Valentine's Day;

They git it at Wal-Mart, it's romantic that way.




Some men git roses on that special day

from the cooler at Kroger. "That's impressive," I say.




Some men buy fine diamonds from a flea market booth.

"Diamonds are forever," they explain, suave and couth.




But for this man, honey, these won't do. Cause you're too special, you sweet thang you.

I got you a gift, without taste nor odor, more useful than diamonds...

IT'S A NEW TROLLIN' MOTOR!!

    LMBO...I resemble that remark...
    but I already got a trolling motor...I do need a new rake....That was a great poem, I may just use that this year...

    How do you know you are Southern?
    When every word in this poem makes sense. I could identify with the whole dang thang...'specially the moonpies and RC colas.

    Thanks & Happy hearts all around.
