Sister Bree Was Shocked

Sister Bree got engaged on the balcony that day.
Bright was shocked, for he was the one who “got away”.
She thought he would come to his senses finally.
In her heart, Derrick B. Works suited her to a T.

Sister Bree was shocked, she barely knew this guy.
But she liked engagements; we did not wonder why.
She loved gifts, and collected them, with an affected sigh.
Milking all she could out of each and every smitten guy.

Bright’s tears were flowing, she could not abide the sight.
So she leapt off the balcony in October, on that very night.
Not ever knowing Derrick and Bree were practicing for her.
But now she’s an angel, guiding them both, all-knowing and pure.

This was for a certain poetry prompt that was rather silly.
