Nostalgic Reminiscence Where'R Thee Be Maryann Sage
smitten with a forsaken long lost love

whereby thy perfect match I do

shun hull distress disgraceful,
which hide de lee recognize coveted prime mate,
(who shared love of playing scrabble,
and born same January 13th birthdate,
yet six orbits thy senior)
mine golden opportunity to lose,
viz ma mish mashed aggravating huff flew
vee yam this then
young asinine buck unwittingly
inflicted long forgot 'til
ear layer t'day thee spouse
showed me an photograph,
when suddenly this lix spittle
curmudgeonly bard
unexpectedly experienced
abysmal love stricken agony
(that despite pro missing to pledge -
while taking a knee -

became thy lawful legal wife - of Jew
whoosh heritage juiced like me, and knew

at bachelorhood, when she eyed thyself
(wedded now deux plucks decades),
though no moo

hence early married life
pitched 'tween Scylla and Charybdis

didst bid eternal happiness
now delayed repercussions I rue!
