Marriage of Sorts

Wife: when I met her first, she was a dream
me: she said if rich we could be a team

father-in law: looked like would die next day
me- he gave consent if I mend my way

mother in law: love her don’t get me wrong
me:without her, marriage would be a song

brother- in law: walked with Eastwood hat
me: I could quickly see he was a tw*t

Sister-in-law: young pretty in her vest
me: If I had wed her would have been best

All: So this life is full of luckless fate,
me:if you are planning wedding- please wait!!

love: If you are young looking for dates
advice: stay home spend time with mates!
