Twas once a young lad named Pete,

who fancied the girl down the street.

And though he was shy,

he did catch her eye. 

Oh! how life can be sweet.

“But wait,” the lady suggested.

“Although I am surely tempted;

before we undress,

I think it’d be best 

if you and I go get tested.”

And being a respectful lad,

Pete held out his hand.

And together they walked

to visit the Doc, 

for the lady had taken a stand. 

And once the results were in,

the couple began to grin.

And just as they’d prayed,

safe, sweet love was made

between Pete and Lady Lynn.

Heed the moral of my tale,

and forever more without fail:

Get tested with your lover

and you shall discover,

your sex life will smoothly sail.

You can still submit your poem to us and we’ll keep posting our favs. And be sure to give your local Planned Parenthood health center a call and make an appointment to get yourself tested. 

Having sex can be quite fun
two or more are joined as one
But don‘t be silly, 
wrap your willie. 
Use a glove,
to protect your love. 
to heighten your joys,
always wash your toys. 
And if of germs you are suspected, 
for your own sake, please get tested!
If an illness then is spotted, feel no shame, 
it happens to most players of the game. 
keep your health and you will see
it‘s easy to hand in a cup of pee.
