Whats In a Name

He served me up an ice cream sundae on a trey, with only one cherry on top to my dismay, instead asked the maitre dee for a parfait, he said roger that I'll bring it back with no delay, And while at the cafe I overheard a lady saying she wanted to sue, angry about the dry cleaners ruining her rose suit, I just went about my way the story getting harry, next thing I knew my boyfriend asked me to mary me, We ended up getting married on a summer's eve, but my new husbands colin burst when he let out a sneeze, using a philips screwdriver that was up my sleeve, we put it back now intact with one les bill to grieve, Then later I managed to get stuck in the john, my husband jimmied the lock and I was gone, soon things started to get back to newlywed norm, each day waking up for our jobs at the break of dawn, Afterwards for 9 months ate nothing but pickles and candy, suddenly I felt my luke warm water break which was jim dandy, now baby makes three which means more to cary, along with our pet tomcat whom we named scaredy. 11-10-16
