Terry Flood Poet Verse

Hitched

I
Can See
You
And me
Enjoying
The life.
You
Can see
You and Me
As man and wife.
Your dad said 
To me
That
Marriage
Ain't just fun.
You have
Girl,
I have 
Gun!

Kim Merryman June 26, 2021 at 2:47 PM Terry, this made me laugh! Congrats on your win in my contest! Blessings, Kim M Terry Flood June 27, 2021 at 11:43 AM And thank you for my placement. I often approach contests at a bit of a tangent, often to be rewarded with N/A... which merely makes a placement all the more rewarding. Thanks again, Kim. Terry

Paula Goldsmith June 26, 2021 at 10:54 AM Congratulations on your win. What a fun write. A dad's gun will keep a boy in line. Enjoy your win with blessings.................. Terry Flood June 26, 2021 at 2:26 PM Thankyou Paula. So glad you enjoyed. Terry

Andrea Dietrich June 24, 2021 at 5:44 PM back with my congrats. This one was especially fun and enjoyable to read. Terry Flood June 25, 2021 at 4:11 PM Thanks Andrea, pleased that you enjoyed. Most of what I write nods toward ‘tongue in cheek’ so I get a lot of N/A. As such, it’s nice to find myself on the podium sometimes. Terry

Marilene Evans June 24, 2021 at 4:14 PM Congratulations! Yes, I did laugh. There were so many marriages that came about cause the Dads showed their guns to the guys who knocked out their girls... I heard when I was growing up... Cute poem.... Terry Flood June 24, 2021 at 4:27 PM You HEARD huh? Hmmm... thanks Marilene. Terry
