Luke Tries To Mar a Marriage

The clouds dispersed and brightened
And Luke looked The Frightened
His long bright look had darkened,
A week’s prayer not hearkened:
Not that of fervent farmer
A long parched Earth is Hammer
There’s a union he’d cancelled
And sought it by The Rains sealed;
An arranged Heavy Rainfall
That should drown Reception Hall:
Bride soak down to her undies,
Bride groom asking “What’s just this?”

Twelve thousand to Rain Maker
And before now Not A Shake:
Getting back his money sure,
Yet, in spirit remain poor…

Tried Luke to mar a marriage;
Over it run Hell’s Carriage!
