She did it on purpose, I know it!
Put those gross little things in the stew
Tried to disguise them as potatoes
Leaving me no choice, but to spew

Carrots and peas, flying everywhere
Beef, shredded, more than before
Those torturous turnips, defeated
I threw the rest of them on the floor!

 

Partially based on a true story. I never ate my mother-in-law’s stew again lol

Clyde was a dapper ole chap
Donned in his favorite top hat
Lived in a tux, all year round
The ladies thought he was all that

Each one trying to win his hand
At the dance club, they would spin
Pirouetting about him, oh, so grand
Made Clyde feel like the kingpin

Dancing away, the night grew short
One by one, the ladies departed
Poor Clyde was left, standing alone
Feeling quite low, and downhearted

Until he realized what he could do
Yes! The dance floor was all his own
Clicking to the beat, step one, step two
Tapped his way back, to the Antarctic zone

She tried to play the comedienne

When her writing, she forgot, again

Gave teacher excuses

Blamed it on the Muses

Claiming their words got stuck in her pen

Memoirs penned, and leather bound

Knowledge held, without a sound

Changed the way she lived her life

Pages filled with angst and strife

She journeyed far, across the seas

Away from those, she’d never please

And wrote it down, to this, she’d tend

Every day, knowing, it could be the end

Of writing, as she knew the pages to be

Twas this, her milestone, that set her free

He was so very deceptive, in a beguiling way

Romanced the ladies, a little game he would play

Word got around, about this hornswoggling dude

Women would talk, called him names, oh so rude

But he didn’t care, he continued to schmooze

Plates of lobster and steak, and plenty of booze

All he needed to do was say hello, wink, and smile

Flash his Rolex, and gold chains, but after awhile

This no longer worked, and he didn’t know why

Seems the gals had caught on, to this cheating guy
