She Wished to be Rich

She wished to be rich though she was built like a bridge But she could cook, she could sew, she could stitch So, she snagged a wealthy man by repeating, ‘I do and I can’ Beauty was no part of the plan

The truth of the matter is often not the I can, and I do. Quite often it's the size of the man's wallet that's part of the plan (lol) ~Stay well, GW. ~CM
