"Silly, Sweet Susanna" and "The Nude" - two poems

The following are two short poems about a couple ladies 'au naturel'. The first one ended up that way by accident, the second on purpose.

Silly, Sweet Susanna

My silly, sweet Susanna,
Is always one for drama,
While walking in her sleep one night,
Was seen without pajamas.

Through streets of New York City,
Her presence was so pretty,
For underneath the dim streetlights,
You'd see her 'Nitty-Gritty'.

The cops called her indecent,
And gave to her the treatment,
Like thirty days inside a cell,
Her court date was quite recent.

The judge said she was guilty,
Because she wore no 'Kilty',
But strolled around with nothing on,
And showed her skin so silky.

Back home is my Susanna,
She's overcome her trauma,
Now every night when going to bed,
She's sure to wear pajamas.

The Nude

A girl wearing nothing walks on the beach,
And people recoil in disgust,
"What's that girl doing", they all want to know,
Her behaviour could cause some to lust.

But she isn't out there to create a scene,
She isn't there thinking she's lewd,
She doesn't mean to be crude or obscene,
The girl just wants to be nude.

The moral of the story is simply this,
Let people live as they may,
What seems so bizarre and strange to some,
To others is really okay.

David Pekrul was born in New Westminster, B. C. Canada.

He wrote his first poem in February, 2004, as an Anniversary card for his wife, Linda. Being rather pleased by the results of his first attempt, he wrote a second one, then another and another. He soon realized that he was in love with words.

The pictures that his words paint may not always be pretty, but they are pictures worth viewing, for he writes about the world around him, whether they be things good, bad or otherwise. He also writes about family, nature, God and faith.

His first poetry book, "Parts Of The Sum Volume One" has just been published and can be found at http://www.blurb.com/bookstore/detail/3145051

David makes his home in the foothills of the Canadian Rockies with his wife Linda and spoiled pup, Tiki.
