A Simple man and A Fed up wife by Jon A Cavanaugh

A Simple man and A Fed up wife

A Simple man I like gosling I like gander But you feed me salamander I like chicken I like turkey But you serve me gecko jerky Where'd you get your recipes I bet they're all from overseas I wish I'd known before we wed What foul foods that I'd be fed A Fed up wife I know that you hate salamander And gecko meat for your provender But without income it's quite hard To shop for food past our front yard If on this grub you're sick of dining GET A JOB! Just stop your whining!

Lol, she got fed up is right. I am surprised that she can come up with anything for him :). Love it.

This was a very early style of mine. I wrote this many years ago. I almost didn't post it. And what I did post was the abridged version. I'm so glad you enjoyed it. I may have to post some more of my other early works.

Thank you. This poem is an earlier poem of mine. I've posted most of my favorites already. I'm glad you enjoyed it. I almost didn't post it. Maybe I should throw caution to the wind and post some more of my early works. Or maybe not!
