Twelve Tacky Women


Twelve Tacky Women 

We tell them it's just bunco
But they don't really know
It's really twelve tacky women
Rearing to go
 
We each show up
Some with bottle in hand
Ready to drink and laugh
Share silly jokes about life and men

We each put in a few dollars
Hoping to win the pot
Which totaled sixty dollars
Not a heck of a lot  

Loser never left
Empty handed you see
Boobie prize in hand
She was as happy as could be 

A fun night to be had
By one and all
Twelve tacky women
We sure had a ball

We checked our calendar
To see who had it next
Stretched out our arms
 Hugged each others necks

Those special times we'll never forget
Memories engraved of friends who have left
Some moved on to far away places
Others gone on to Heaven
Now seeing loved ones faces
 

  GOD BLESS YOU MY BUNCO FRIENDS !

A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
