Think It Over

To get hitched, have kids and all that jazz

is a goal in life, that most everyone has!

        Don't make it your solution, 

        although,  Marriage is, an institution

the same is true of Alcatraz!

You kill me, Ralph, but I guess there are problems with any types of institutions. Thanks for visiting my work. Best to you, Diane

What a funny limerick, Ralph! You really do have a lot of skill in this form. I'm still laughing at this one. Love, Carolyn (Think I should hold a limerick contest on marriage? You gave me an idea, but I'm not married.) Love, Carolyn
