Mister Killjoy

A brand-new fur coat The latest smart phone Four cruises a year An ocean-front home She must have it all Says money's no object Yet at times he objects To her kind of logic

Without love, I guess we'd be pretty lazy, self-centered folks, eh?! :) gw

Four cruises a year! I know her! She is my best friend and her name is Susan and she is single so I am trying to picture who the "he" is.

It's Susan's invisible friend, of course!! (What happened to those faeries you write about? Aren't they invisible to 'commoners' as well? LOL). Thank you, Caren. Cheers, Gershon

Ah, the wise musing of a man given the key to his ball-and-chain buy (pun intended) his better half. Lol! A very witty poem, Shon! And the ink acid drip burns w/truth from atoned pure lips. (As we forgive each other our faults.) Ty for sharing this delightful muse. Love and peace always.

As they say, "Women are from Venus, Men are from Mars.." (Or is it the other way around; I forget)… btw, please note the phrase 'at times' in the poem... Usually the (wise) male/husband will go with the flow, so to speak... Smiles, Gershon
