The Prince's Kiss

There once lived a handsome prince Who one day was a frog But a kiss from a beautiful princess Made his home no more a log Now this prince was a playboy And he liked his women fast Every relationship he ever had Was destined not to last In the kingdom lived a witch We'll call, (my mother-in-law) The ugliest woman who ever lived Uglier than them all Now the prince was getting older And was tired of running around So he thought he'd find a woman And finally settle down Now the witch, (my mother-in-law) Had also heard this news And she was bound and determined That she'd be the one he'd choose So the witch, (my mother-in-law) Decided to make up a tale About a wicked witch, (somebody elses mother-in-law) Who had put her under a spell And a single kiss from royality Would show her beauty inside And live happily everafter As prince and his princess bride Now the prince was a little reluctant But he puckered and closed his eyes And when the deed was finally done He was in for a big surprise For the witch, (my mother-in-law) Was not a princess at all You didn't really think she was did you? For I said she was my mother-in-law The prince was shocked to see That she was still and ugly witch, (you know) But now the prince began to scratch For he had such a terrible itch For the ugly witch, (you guessed it) Had cast an itching spell Now no one else would want him And she'd keep him for herself Well that's the end of my story It has no moral at all Except don't be kissing ugly witches And especially my mother-in-law

You're too much, Larry. Wish I could meet your mother-in-law just to see why she inspires these poems. (Maybe she gave him fleas?) Love, Carolyn
