The Groom's Family

We are the groom's family. Ours is not like a poor home Where they press clothes with bottle And take pap for lunch. The bride shall not eat peanut But fresh fish and fresh grilled meat. The bride shall not fetch water; Her man shall fetch her. 18/11/15

Very nicely done, Kayode! That seemed funny to me about the bride eating a peanut! Pretty cheap of people who do something like that!

An interesting comparison between rich and poor, Kayode. Pleased to see that the female is being treated with respect by her man! ~ All the best. // paul
