The Wedding Cake
The Wedding Cake
I told my bride that we should have
a special wedding cake
Something very different,
a statement it would make
Explaining how I saw it
and the flavors I desired
The special little figurines
my vision had inspired
How it would be delicious
in our favorite butter cream
Tinted in the color red,
yes that would be a dream
I even drew a picture
of each layer to the top
I really got excited
it was very hard to stop
Its then I looked into her eyes
and saw an evil stare
I asked what I had done so wrong
would she please like to share
That’s when she shattered all my hopes
when these few words she said
“There’s no way I will have a cake
that’s themed “The Walking Dead”
I guess that means I shouldn’t take my Daryl vest on the honeymoon. : )
