i was writing you
a love poem
about stallions &
riding bareback
but feared
it was getting crass
so i thought of jello
though none
want to think
of love as soft & jiggly
but one day
if we are &
i, a bit crass,
we can still
ride horses together
as the sun sets.
Tell a story in 55 words. Give it a try or just read more, go see g-man.

This so rocks! Your mind is a thing of much wonder and admirable qualities, Brian. And of course love is soft and jiggly -- just as it's meant to be. :)
xo
There is ALWAYS room for Jello!!
JANNIEEEE!!!!!!!!!
Vixen!!!
Great 55 Son...
I'm all about The Jiggle!
Have a Kick Ass Week-End!!
Can anything be crass between lovers who share everything?
Dude, the tittle alone makes ones mind wander...lol ;) great job!
This one is a pretty fun little bit of randomness. Very nice. My 55 is HERE .
The title alone makes this 55 excellent!
Old & Jiggly aint so bad... the ride getting there can be wonderful if we allow it to be. I really love the visual I get from that last bit... just lovely!
Crass? You? Never!
I don't know. I think love is quite jiggly.
Wow, wonderful!
darn tootin magpie....smiles.
just being a little playful...
love this!!
What flavour best suits horseback riding?
gotta love a little jiggle :-)
lol! The title alone conjures up all sorts of strange images!
A little soft jiggle is a good thing. :)
only if you bring the J-E-L-L-O
i am rather fond of black cherry or grape...but i am really not that picky when it comes to jello...captain...
Yeah, as we get older, jello is our destiny in this department. (Sigh)
love is like a box of jello....
yes i am silly, but my other lines were too crass ;)
Saweet!
It's been a long time since I've done jello shots. Now I want some.
Hehehehe!
Great post!
boy that one is all over the place, my mind went there and back again. great 55, very flirty
Y'know, if there is such a thing as reincarnation, I just BETTER marry a poet in my next life.
:)
Clever Brian.
Ahh Kay stole my line--as long as she brings the jello.
There's always room for jello. :) Yes, love is kinda soft and jiggly like jello. :)
Hmmm...weren't we just talking about apples? :-)
Brian.....that's all I have to say about that. :-)
Oh please, I'm sure she would be happy with ANY love poem...bareback, jello, or stallions being incorporated!
love jello, love horses, love the way you put 55 together
oh wow….just speechless..
Tender and funny all at the same time. Just wonderful!
Sweet... love the sense of humour Brian! Love can be soft and jiggly - that feeling when your heart hesitates and seems to miss a beat: it jiggles! Jello fits perfectly haha...
Great title! I'm a big Jello fan.
Cheers, jj

HelloJello
Let's think a title for ye. Jello Jello lover! Lots of expressions and thoughts you provide us here.
Nice. Smiles.
Joy always,
Susan
did she just roll her eyes at you on this one? Cute 55!
Just the title alone was enough! I think it would make a great title of a book...a book you SHOULD write! And soon.!
ha, nice way to sneak in the soft and jiggly future a long marraige promises. You sure can throw in the twists.
HAKAWE, as Gman says.

I love the last three lines... So romantic...
Have a lovely Friday, dear Brian,
xoxo
all warm and fuzzy.
You can read so much into this. Excellent, as always.
I don't mind picturing love as soft & jiggly :)
new vocabulary of the day "crass". interesting word, now if you use it in your next 5 poems, I might actually remember it for the future ;)
This is cute Brian. Thank you.
Cute 55. My mind was all over the place reading it... smiles.
There is always room for jiggle. :) Boy I haven't had jello in a long long time. :) Very well done :) Have a great Friday :)
Jello....riding horses bareback...hmmmmmmm, conjures up a few ideas in MY head.
J E L L Ooooooooooooo!!
Here's Mine. Yes, I finally did one...long time no see!!!
Have a super weekend.
Can't beat a soft heart that wobbles like a jelly!
There's always room for Jello! haha!
Love should definitely include Jell-O and stallions. ;)
Love should be soft and see-through, like jello!! Be transparent for one another. True love for sure.
And to ride a horse, you need to be soft...to mold to the horse as she moves forward on the track. Go with the flow!!
Your poems always illicit visual images for me. I love them!
Hugs

Super writer, Brian. Carry on while we read.
I tell you what...have fun with the jello; incorporate whipped cream. Then you and your love can ride off into that beautiful sunset!
Love - Jello Hmmm Genius I think!!!!
I like Jello. It melts in the mouth! :)
Wow! The mind boggles...
Awwwwwww! Loved this!
Mine is up - bring your coat!
Love all jiggly... it is at my house but I am losing weight... love it.
I have one today. :)
Fun poem. I thought you were going to say that as you aged, you were going to get all soft and jiggly.
well I wasn't bareback but I had jello yesterday - with whipcream
lol love it always (your writing, not the jello) although whipcream could be a close second ;)
I think the horses are more romantic than the jello!

Nuts in May
Well that's really nice.Have a great weekend :)
I think it was Bridget Jones who said, "Wobbly bits." Nice images of the horses....thanks.
VERY nice! What a great story!
Awesome 55! Age does tend to bring the jigglies...
Love without the jiggle, is riding without the horse...Thanks for reading my Friday 55. Hope your week goes well
I'm always amazed by what you come up with for the prompts, your pieces are always fantastic. I must admit I'm a little jealous. :)
I like Green-Eyed Momster's idea...jello shots! Enjoyed this whimsical piece. GREAT title.
I like the soft and jiggly, it's the state of my being right now:) not much of a jello eater but I do love lime jello with lots of whipped creme.....have a sweet weekend!
I LOVE the idea that love is soft and jiggly. Excellent 55.
mmmm jello.
the more wiggly and pliable the better.
I think the Jell-O reference was a self-defense mechanism kicking-in, keeping yourself from becoming too vulnerable when writing a love poem.
(That or maybe you were just hungry)
Fun 55, Brian! Have a great weekend!
Riding horses in the sunset - how romantic! Not sure about the Jello though. ;)
This is a very sexual poem...but you know that, right?
Sweet!!!!
:)
Gotta love the jello, and some of us even jiggle like it whether we want to or not!!!!!
I'm smiling. And thinking of that Old Spice man riding a horse. And, of course, Bill Cosby. But not together. And I think soft and jiggly love is beautiful.
cherry red sweet:)
I will never look at jello the same way again...or horses for that matter. :-D You brought a smile to my day.
♥namaste♥
Brilliant...and what a bitchin' title.
Yeah, that's right Bitchin'!
A beautiful poem about love and poetry, Brian. It really is very charming.
Of course, now I visualize jiggly things on horseback.
very cool- like every other person who hasn't eaten jello in a while, I loved it w/ whip cream- not going there w/ horses though!
I love it!Love can be compared to jello.wiggly sqiggly,lol.I love the visual in my mind as well.LOL.
And of course, the jello is as red as a Valentine heart. I'm having a little trouble with the image of the jello squishing through one's teeth, though... ;-)
you posted this too late for me to catch it lol, so, here we are, great 55 mate :)
Tee hee! You have that streak in you...
And now? you got me thinking of that whipped cream that goes with jello....
(wink wink) this was a good one, Brian.
Great comparison, love and jello!
What a wonderful and fun tribute to jiggly parts! Loved this.
Now there is a concept
a giggle and a jiggle
Nice 55 my friend
Nice concept.. Loved it..
True Love
True Love Never Ends
--Someone Is Special--
i woulda liked to have read the poem about stallions and riding bareback while eating jello...soft & squiggly jello ;-)
liked this....
But love is soft and jiggly. And hard and fast. And messy.
Nothing crass about it Brian,,,, sensual, fun, playful, or just plain divine. Between you and G-man's Lavender kisses and jello jiggles, horse back rides and steamy rain showers, can poetry get any better,I wonder...
Joanny
Aw you romantic, you. :)
whew! i finally got to the end of the comment scrolling!
:0
awesome the title really caught my attention
):)(:(
haha. pass the jello.
I like the horse imagery.
Aww, this makes me smile. So cute.
Oh yes...riding horses anytime, jello...anytime! Very cool poetry :-D
