Language of Love

The only words a man needs to know
When he leaves his wedding day
Is yes dear and no dear while nodding his head
And of course whatever you say

It seems like men get dumber
When they put on that wedding ring
His house is not his castle
And He's no longer the king

He tells her no your're not getting fat
At least twenty times a day
And he bites his tongue til he can't even talk
When her mother comes over to stay

They say that marriage is blissful
And there's nothing greater in life
And now you know my opinion
But I still better ask my wife

Great humorous write. We all know that it is a joke and that women have to say yes sir and yes your majesty. They have to do everything just right and stay on the budget or pay the price of the anger of their man. Keep the creative pen flowing. Sara
