Truth and Love

Truth is, that elephant in bed with you The one between you and your spouse Stealing the covers late at night Snoring with peanuts on its breath Jumping in the bathtub with you Only to break through the floor Neighbors don't like three nude creatures Coming down uninvited at breakfast Dining tables were not made for that All that wet and weight and naked There is nothing wrong with love Everyone should love their elephant The couple should have brought a towel Some cake or peanut butter and jelly Their friend should excuse himself Being large is not smart or wise sometimes What would their neighbor's think? Two is company, three is a crowd They should have taken a shower
