Your Homemade Anniversary Cards
Clip those toenails,
Before you come to bed.
I've purchased new linen.
And made confetti...
Out of the ones you've shred.
Plus I've made lampshades,
From the hair off your legs.
They remind me of antiques.
There was so much hair...
I made a pair!
At one time for us love was blind,
My dear.
But aging has made this quite clear...
One of us has to pay more attention,
To our fixed budget.
And if you don't like the confetti I've made...
Remove your teeth,
To lick the frosting off the cake.
It's glazed!
And what is not eatened,
Will be placed in the cupboard.
'Honey,
I admire your creativity.
But your homemade anniversary cards,
Are getting longer and longer and longer...
With your exaggerations.'
~I've only made it for you.
What have you read that is not true? ~
