A Shy Personage

My poetess friend, a shy personage Sips tea while composing her versenage Ah, but now she’s deciding T’would be more exciting To marry, for better or worsenage. She wrote all the vows they would say At church, when arrived the big day. Hubby hadn’t rehearsed So in his vows, he cursed! Made bride and priest turn ashengray. She learned hubby wasn’t poetical Her haiku just made him upsettical, She’d read her new sonnet, But he didn’t wonnet He’d go drive his V-8 Corvettical!

Your humor and skill with some made-up words is most excellent. Enjoyed the rhyme in them, expecially. A winner already in my book, a 10. Thanks for sharing it.
