I have recently submitted to PH a one-poem set of limericks about my parents and siblings. I have mentioned my one child, Shannon, in at least one poem on PH. She is married, has one child, a son, who is 'in the Autistic Spectrum', and she is a general practioner doctor in Pennsylvania.

It's amazing! One thing I know that you love to eat ice cream... true. However, have you really married to 5 women in different spells? I think you must be joking. Probably, you are a bachelor...ha...ha

Keep a distance from the bride and the groom whoever they may be and especially when they are with each other in an secluded moments of privacy. Very humorous.

Lesson learned! Never go out looking for bride and groom! Enjoyed the whole poem. Your expressions are wonderful.

Hmmm, what's not true? The part about the 'ex then glared' I'm sure is true, it's the part about you in a tuxedo that sounds very questionable. (In my opinion it is often best to avoid the obvious.)
