The Husband's Lament ... A Poem For Father's Day

Putting the cart
before the horse
is like
letting her
break your heart
after the divorce

    This is a very dark poem for Father's Day.

    But its silver lining is...
    this poem gives reason to marry
    the same woman twice
    AND
    allowing their "children"
    to be part of the wedding party
    !!!
