Happy Birthday, RG Alexander!

Smutketeers are hosting a birthday bash and giving away a $25 gift card in her honor, but I wanted to post my own special gift to RG. Happy Birthday, my dear -- here's a villanelle I wrote just for you! :D





RG Was Born to Write Romance



The lady loves to sing and dance

but deep down in her heart of hearts,

RG was born to write romance.



You might not think so at first glance—

She’s deeply into other arts.

And though she loves to sing and dance,



A hero with a mighty lance,

Who’s great in bed and never farts,

Is why she lives to write romance.



Throw in another hunk sans pants,

A heroine with looks and smarts—

RG can make them sing and dance.



Though some might look at her askance,

she just ignores their slings and darts

for she was born to write romance.



I’m really glad she took the chance,

And so are Smutkadettes and Tarts,

for though she loves to sing and dance

RG was born to write romance.
