She: you lied to me in September
He: my dear I don't remember
She: you said we would wed in spring
He: I don't remember a thing
She: you promised our love forever
He: now that would be an endeavor
She: are you mocking me now, kind Sir?
He: no, my mind's a bit of a blur
She: then you never meant a word
He: I'm sorry, this is absurd
She: then leave me now, you swine
He: madame, the pleasure is mine

This is marvelous! Well done!
ReplyDeleteAnd another one bites the dust.
ReplyDeleteI have to wonder if either of them really meant it, or if they just got caught up in the conversation, throwing, as it were, the baby out with the bathwater.
Whichever it was, you did a magnificent job of writing this in apparently effortless rhyme, Ellecee. Good work.
