HE WAS HUNGRY FOR HER

by John Yeo

Captain Martin a dedicated astronaut and flyer,

Met Mary Lee, a high flying flirt and a tease, 

He was so besotted he was hungry for her.

~

Captain Martin, enveloped with strong desire

The flight plan filled his heart with unease,

Captain Martin a dedicated astronaut and flyer.

~

Copilot Mary smiled as the rocket flew higher

The Captain was impressed with her expertise 

He was so besotted he was hungry for her.

~

Deep space surrounded the rocket, still on fire 

Mary Lee pouted, flashed her eyes to unfreeze

Captain Martin a dedicated astronaut and flyer.

~

The autopilot flew onward, Mary removed her attire

Captain Martin approached trying hard to please.

He was so besotted he was hungry for her.

~

The stars shone brilliantly, fate seemed to conspire

Lighting a scene for love, with no guarantees. 

Captain Martin a dedicated astronaut and flyer 

He was so besotted he was hungry for her.
