Poetry Wednesday: The Three Suitors.

 

The Three Suitors

 

Three Suitors they came a courting she

On three Sundays, consecutively

 

All three she served with Earl Grey Tea

And requested of each, “How will thous Love-th Me?”

 

Suitor number one said he “ I will love-th you with All Dignity”

Suitor number two said he” I will love-th you Quite Divinely

Suitor number three said he” I will love-th you, Most Amorously”

 

She thought about these Suitors Three

And wondered which one would, her husband  be

 

She entertained the thought of a love with Dignity

And she responded to Divinity, most thoughtfully

 

The one she chose excitedly, was suitor number Three

It seems she desired him, The Most Ardently.

    Words court me playfully
    If marriage didnt bind me tightly
