Just Because I Said I Do

Just Because I Said I Do Dr. James E. Martin ©January, 2014 To the altar many years ago We joyfully, nervously, cautiously did go. Now these forty plus years hence There are things we each find enormously intense! To me I see no genuine gain With her asking me where I left my brain. She sees no humor when the seat’s left up Nor when I yell at her little pup! She continues to fuss and ignore my advance When I refuse to change my stance. Life, however, continues with glee When I remind her that she can’t stay angry with me!
