A girl who stood out in the queue Was surprised how quickly love grew But deep down inside She knew that he lied And her dream would end with eye dew

I suspect more relationships end with eye dew than, "I do" . . . . , Aloha!

God created eye dew, and greedy men created the, "I do"! Aloha!

My eldest sister was endowed with mountains for breasts, and learnt in her early teens that males were not really interested in her, but would say or do anything just to get their hands on her assets. Beauty has a price to pay! Thank you for reading and commenting! Aloha!
