stranger at church

The stranger’s hat was cattywampus
His grey and white toupee slightly askew
Church ladies thought he was single
I mean more than just a random few

They surrounded him at the pot luck
Before he was introduced to the church
The fact he is the new minister’s husband
Gave quite a few old biddies a lurch.
