TTC – please keep it family friendly.

Your three words today are:
WEDDING √
CELEBRATION √
REFORM √


The wedding was scheduled for nine
I do's and don't on their loving minds
Standing on a beach filled with friends
A celebration to mark the start of the end
As a boy child he wasn't taught the rule
As many a young man, he became a fool
Falling in lust, thinking it'd last forever more
But the lady saying the vows knew the score
She had been taught the lesson at an early age
Feelings of guilt, Caducous would fuel her rage
Setting the stage for their loving life of endurance
With the right reform he supplied her insurance

  1. Very cynical Ernie! Thanks for including the 3TC.
    As an aside, when Hubby and I got married 34 years ago, there were only 9 of us in the congregation and the Registrar was prepared to wait until the rest of our party arrived, bless her. We told her this was it, us, two sets of parents and three friends, so everyone took a row to make the room look ‘occupied’. It was a brilliant day, and as no paper confetti was allowed, people threw sugar puffs and rice crispies, so the birds had a feast!

      1. I was fishing sticky cereal out of my bra most of our wedding night, that and hoots of laughter from us both as our ‘wedding night suite’ was an indoor cabin with bunk beds on the overnight ferry to Holland! I was also fascinated by the flush loo and kept playing with the button.
        Hubby and I were the Cynics Elite when we first met, so I can understand.

  2. I wonder what it would be like to love someone that did not have an agenda. That’s a rather sad place to start a commentary isn’t it?
