The Bride

I'm looking for a female
Who likes to share her food
Who doesn't mind a real small house
I hope I'm not being rude

She must like to take a bath
Every Sunday night
And sleep where I tell her to
Without puttin' up a fight

Must like to take long walks
And spend some time outside
A female I can talk to
And even take for a ride

She don't have to be too pretty
Looks don't matter at all
She just needs to be obedient
And hear me when I call

She must have all her teeth
In case she gets in a fight
I want her to defend herself
Anything less ain't right

I sure hope someone answers soon
But at least I know I tried
You see, my poor dog is lonely
And he really does need a bride

Throughout the first four verses I was thinking you needed a dog, not a woman. Then, of course, I find out that's just what you had in mind, Larry. Enjoyed your poem! Love, Carolyn
