Not So True

I sent my love a red heart,
Declaring my love so true.
His angry wife returned it.
"Hands off!! He is mine".










For contest 3 way tie for no. 1 won.

You're right! This contest ended way too fast, but you still came out on top, Joyce. It looks like Catie's Clerihew contest is filling fast too. The short verse forms seem to do that. Congrats again! Love, Carolyn
