No Need For Divorce

King Henry VIII wed them
In order to bed them.
When they no longer suited
Had them executed.

FABULOUS!!! You picked a great topic for your clerihew, Joyce, and I'm sure this is a winner. Had me laughing out loud. I wrote about a "divorce" of a different nature in my clerihew. These are so much fun to read and your poem goes to my favorites. Love, Carolyn
