Sun tan lotion

 Sun tan lotion 


My bichon frise is not a fan

Of expensive sun tan lotion 

For she licks it off my legs -

Where did she get this notion?


I’m sure she has no malice

My best intents her reason

It’s an act of love and care

A sign of her devotion. 


My dry old skin needs some help

Survive another summer

To keep the Wexford wind at bay

I’ll wear each cream and potion


The sun-house warms my blood

With its views across the sea

While lobster boats and ferries

Speak industry and ecstasy.
