(song lyrics)
My daddy he once told me
"Hey, don't you love you any man"
"Just take what they may give you"
"And give but what you can" – from Gale Garnett’s “We’ll Sing in the Sunshine”
For all you young women who search for a mate -
don’t give up your freedom so soon!
If there is someone you just want to date,
hold off on that honeymoon!
Meet lots of people; take time to play.
What’s the hurry for people to marry?
Sing in the sunshine; laugh every day.
What’s wrong with “temporary?”
I see it so often; folks rush to the altar.
There’s plenty of fish in the sea.
Most of the time, the passion will falter.
Take a good year, then set yourself free.
Unless you want heartache or some weird hassle,
just take my advice if you can.
Women, you’re able to make your own castle
and live in it like you’re the man!

For Edward Ibeh's Choose Your Own Title, Vol 7 - Songs - Any Form Poetry Contest
Song title chosen: Inspired by Gale Garnett’s “We’ll Sing in the Sunshine” (not necessarily my real opinion… or is it?)
I would give an arm and a leg to see him, she said.
She was going to meet a new guy by name of Ted.
Only time will tell if things will turn out okay.
I am weak as a kitten, I heard my friend say.
At the end of the date she had the time of her life.
She expected this guy Ted to make her his wife.
I said, I hope you did not speak of your crazy short leg.
No, she nodded. I avoided that like the plague.
I took the tiger by the tail, she told me smugly.
Thought outside the box, called myself May Puggly.
There are plenty of fish in the sea, I reminded her.
Just in case the expected outcome did not occur.
It is as plain as the nose on my face she said later.
He was not much of a man, a notorious dater.
He is now as dead as a doornail me, that hack!
Was she actually the pot calling the kettle black?
Time sure did fly when I was having fun.
But now that he has stood me up, this creep had better run!
Ignorance is bliss said the uneducated Miss
Take the tiger by the tail, and then give a hiss.
A snake in the grass thought outside of the box
You can’t judge a book by its cover, said the ox.
Like a kid in the proverbial candy store
Good things come to those who wait said Moore.
In the nick of time there was a loose cannon swarm.
All together it became the perfect storm.
Cliques are like cans of worm said a tiny newborn.
But like all God’s favorite things, every rose has a thorn.
Grandma said, “The apple does not fall far from a tree.”
She was referring of course, to that arrogant baby, Little Lee.
What goes around comes around, Daddy interjected.
That’s the pot calling the kettle black, Mom said, feeling rejected.
No sense in beating a horse to death, said the uneducated Miss.
The grass is always greener on the other side. She blew them a kiss.
There are plenty of fish in the sea, they told Uncle Hank.
But now he felt dead as a doornail, he was sweet on Miss Lank.
He must have gotten up on the wrong side of the bed someone said.
If only walls could talk! Hank lamented. His face was quite red.
Correct me if I am wrong
Maybe it is just a coincidence
But ever since the advent and rise
Of so called social media platforms
Arising to give anybody or anyone
A means to voice or express an opinion
Has it not resulted in
Instead of solving problems and differences
Lead rather to creating further more fresh
Conflict and division that wasn't or didn't
Seem to be there before in the first place
Due to people with much the same
Personality traits and similar points of view
And they seem to be rather than steeped
In good intentions and resolving tension
But the complete opposite escalating them
In fact insighting injecting inciting trolling
And when you see them in the flesh
You instantly get the feeling they are as they appear
Needy insecure self serving attention seekers
Who's only aim and wish in life
Is for someone to know who they are
And will stoop or go to any lengths possible
To solely be the center of attention
Because in reality and real actual life
They are sadly without or lacking
Any form of personality traits or characteristics
That would endear or attract them to others
Friendless irreverent and contemptuous
Kind of type of person who
If it wasn't for the likes of Facebook
And other social media platform to reply
There wouldn't be plenty of fish in the sea at all
Left for them being able to rely on
Catfishing baiting or hating upon
