A Night On the Town With Heather

Young lady, I see you have been sampling the family recipe again…I refuse to take you out in public until you are completely:
Sober,
Ober!

Oh, is that so?...Very good, then I regret to tell you that our date is therefore:
Over,
Ober!

Okay, okay, calm down but you will NOT be wearing that skin-tight outfit of:
Leather,
Heather!

I hope it doesn’t rain tonight. That would completely ruin our plans…Did you remember to check the:
Weather,
Heather?

Now STOP that, would y…he-he…You naughty g.. Ha-he-he-oh-ha-ha stop t-tickling me with that:
Feather,
Heather!

Wha…Oh you wild TIGRESS you!...C'mon now, whew!... Am I going to have to put you on a:
Tether,
Heather?

Okay, that's enough!…Now I shall be sitting on pins and needles waiting to see:
Whether
Heather

TIM!!! I laughed SO hard while reading this!! You know, as a kid, I hated my name because it rhymed with so many ridiculous words. You took those words and created a hilarious riot of a poem. DISCLAIMER: I have never in my life worn skin-tight leather! Hahaha. Congrats on your fine win ;)
