Love Poem: No Joyriders

No Joyriders

When parents tell their offspring 
the definition of a fling
they also include
the story that may sound crude
about the birds and the bees
and Tarzan from the trees.
Children claim that they exaggerate
When  they elaborate 
on the story
about male guts and glory.
Some kids need them to simplify
and not to horrify
the tale
about the sperm whale.
The teens who love arachnids, sports
and shorts
quickly understand 
when their parents demand
a ban on joyriders
and jumping spiders.
