Puns < Poems (My Vixen)

#1

Post by Cape_F0X »

Why wast your time thinking of a vixen pun when you can write a Petrarchan, or Italian sonnet about a vixen?
And it's bilingual.

My Vixen

I long for my Vixen
So our lives we may share
So my hand can caress her hair
I search for you my Vixen

I want to laugh with my Vixen
To play games like we don’t care
To not let you notice when I steal a stare
Where are you my Vixen?

I know you may be shy
I promise that I will find you
My search for you will come to an end
I cannot wait to start using; “my wife and I”
I will not allow unnecessary harm befall upon you
My hope is that this comes before my end.


My Jakkals Wyfie

Ek smag na die lyfie van my Jakkals wyfie
Om die lewe mee te deel
Om my hand deur haar hare te streel
Ek soek na jou my Jakkals wyfie

Ek wil saam met jou lag my Jakkals wyfie
Om op ‘n lawwe manier te speel
Om skelm ‘n loer in jou rigting te steel
Waar is jy my Jakkals wyfie?

Ek weet jy is dalk sku
Ek belowe ek sal jou kry
My soek na jou sal tot ‘n einde kom
Ek kan nie wag om aangespreek te word; “Mevrou en U”
Ek sal nie toelaat dat jy onnodig seer sal kry
My hoop is dat dit voor my einde kom.

Somehow the Afrikaans version comes across as much cuter. :3

I am not surprised, it was intended to be Afrikaans only.
I added the English for those who don't understand Afrikaans at all.

My Afrikaans isn't great, but it's good enough to appreciate poetry. This reminds me of Kabouterliefde.

Just kidding, I blame my parents. If any vixens are wondering, 1.64 m, 60 kg.

I can understand written afrikaans with some effort, spoken is a lost cause on me. The Afrikaans is more poetic, in my opinion

I am afraid that declaration did not fall upon any ears, as your target audience does not exist. :P (Also, 1.95m here, or 6'5! Adagio can confirm. He makes a wonderful elbow rest for me. :lol:)

Do not fret, my vulpine companion! I am certain, in some distant region, your dream vixen is waiting for you! :D
Besides, between the two of us, your prospects of finding a mate are far superior. At least most of the females of your species are not... well.. extinct.
That tends to make the challenge of finding a mate most troublesome. And, when you do, taking her to the natural history museum on a date is most awkward.

As for your poetry, it is most well-written! I was quite impressed! However, I shall soon be retaliating with a poem of my own, as it seems my ode to a dead fly is no longer sufficient.

The Western Province is full of attractive women. How "foxy" they are just has to be confirmed. And my proportions were to give the dwarf reaction full context. Because I know the target audience doesn't frequent this site. Maybe they're afraid of being referred to a bitches?

I am interested, Cape - is there an objective way to measure a woman's "foxiness"? :P

I believe that's a colloquialism for sensuality.

Yes there most certainly is. But don't sell the other canines short.

Ah, yes. I should be politically correct. Ahem.
So, what is the objective way to measure a woman's "foxiness"/"wolfiness"/"dogginess"/"caninity"/"canidity"/"jackality"/"coyotility"? (... I was considering adding "bitchiness" there as well, but that would be an entirely different label, would it not?)

Vixens are light and cunning. Wolves are strong and aggressive. And so on and so forth.

This is really not helping my condition.

Are you referring to your singleness? If so, then, as I said, fret not! From what I have been told and have seen, love tends to appear most surprisingly and spontaneously. :D Give it some time. When you do find that special one, I do hope I am on the wedding invitation list. ;)

I always find it weird how in Afrikaans we tend to use the word "Jakkals" instead of "Vos" when we are talking about a Fox.
Perhaps it has something to do with "Jakkals en Wolf" stories where the "Jakkals" in question is not a Jackal but a Red Fox.

My theory is that since there is only one true species of fox in SA every thing gets thrown under "Jakkals".

Easy for you to say! You have to make sure the door frame doesn't knock your flat cap off.

If anyone wonders why the ceiling is so clean...

Of course I do. A certain fox and snow leopard keep scheming to snatch it from my head - their grubby paws all over the tweed... So unhygenic! :P
