Almost Divorced

I near got divorced from my marriage Eyes wandered, as I walked with my carriage It was on St. Patrick's Day When I stopped a girl to say... Hello...instead of shopping for cabbage My wife saw the girl give me a smile She noticed as she walked down the aisle I forgot the potatoes Cause I saw her tomatoes But they were green, and that's not my style

The thought of the green "tomatoes" gave me quite a laugh, Charlie. There was some amazing competition in this category. Congratulations on your second-place win! Best wishes, Carolyn

Creative one. If going to the market caused divorce then I would not have made it 57 years. LOL.. I guess it is what one does at the market. Thanks for dropping by my page. Sara
