A Married Mans Neverland
Last night we were watching “Hook”
Neither of us has read the book.
We suddenly get to mermaid scene
Hubby sits up suddenly quite keen.
Gosh yes I fancy that, for me,
That’s a dish I would like to see.
What is it my dear? I ask so sweet
If its fish you want, I can’t compete.
He looked at me in some dismay
What do you mean my dear, I pray?
I thought it was fish you wanted my dear
But I have not any, I have something near.
Fish fingers we have in store a plenty
Would you like some , I do have twenty
What are you talking about love of my life?
I fancy that mermaid for my wife.
Well my love I cannot stop you
But I bet she doesn’t taste like you want her too
What do you mean? He asks as he shakes his head
Have you been on the drink that is red?
My love I do not understand
This is a chardonnay in my hand
It is white, it is not red
Oh thanks be for that, let’s go to bed.
