I was only married a little while
we decided to dress up that day
the local inn was having a party
I wore a sarong and a flower lei
I bought some flowered material
feeling sexy left my shoulders bare
started wrapping it all around
put on my lipstick curled my hair
My husband was looking real cute
dressed as a calypso man that night
grabbed his straw hat and sandals
together we were quite a sight
Well the band was playing disco
then they played to a Latin beat
my arms and hips were swaying
the other dancers were in for a treat
Well I hadn't wore a bra that night
because I wanted my shoulders bare
well the top of my sarong fell down
as I was waving my arms in the air
Embarrassed I went to the bathroom
my girlfriend tried to cheer me up
my face was still the color of beets
for baring my large C size cup
The night wasn't a complete disaster
I got a special prize that was appealing
I got dinner for two at the cozy inn
for having the costume most revealing
Author notes
True story that happened at a Halloween party in New Jersey at The Robert E. Lee Inn. I laugh now but it was the third most embarressing thing I ever did. Yes there are two worse.

Wow!That's one way to be the life of the party. But I'm glad that it ended up as a happy ending. I bet now you can look back and laugh at it.

I agree with Tudor Rose, its great that there was a happy ending!
I think that what your describing has happened to LOTS of women. I have very large breasts and once i went down a steep slide at a water park and it popped them out the top of my swim suit. My 1 peice very modest bathing suit was not so modest anymore. Oh wow! That was so embarrassing! People were pointing and stuff and it took me a few minutes to figure out why!!!
It's good to know that it happens to others too! HA HA thanks for the chuckle. -
lol this was a really cute piece and I'm happy for you that it had a happy ending.

Good one! It is very nice to come across a well-written, technically correct and clever poem that does what it sets out to do. Is that really a c-size cup in the picture, though? Anyway, enjoyable and delightful! Applause!

Oh my and this reminds me of the time that I went to the beach and had a two piece bathing suit on. A big wave came up and washed off my top. Was my face red. Yes this sure qualifies as an unforgettable Halloween.
