688 : Did the earth move for you too, dear?


There have been earthquakes in Los Angeles recently.
It set me thinking...

The couple were intimately locked
When the building was seismically rocked.
The man was seen to withdraw 
And run out the door,
Leaving the poor woman, half-cocked.

    1. I am glad it has returned. And, if you have extra, some of it might be mine. Which has been in hiding for a long, long time.
