howled mournfully
a commercial traveler
she flashed white teeth
tailored slacks
a frilly organdie blouse
tousled silk
I was all eyes for the girl
I was well gone = in love with
somebody
trimmed with ostrich feathers
I hurried him into the bush – here, the
Australian jungle
all wet and pulpy
you took him for better or for worse
Fancy him doing that!
He was hampering me in my courting
a serious handicap
I persisted in my wooing
we were due to return
chased her
I was put out
The-Silly-Pup’s disdainful survey of
the turkeys
so that was that
digs up my neighbour’s dahlias
get out, you wretch!
