Poetry Thursday

It is Thursday which means the Two Spoiled Cats have provided another photo to inspire our poetic muse

My Aunt Sue marched to her own drum

Although my parents thought she was a scion

But the vapors had them overcome

When she married a lion

They met at a free the animals rally

She was the spokesperson and he represents the big cats

When they met there was no time to dilly or dally

They both thought the other was someone to look at

After the event they went for coffee

She had a mochachino and he intestines of antelope

The intimidated cafe owner said it was all free

And they immediately left to elope.

They drove to Vegas it took all night

And they made plans to get married by a fat Elvis

As the lion and my Aunt walked down the strip people quaked in fright

The wedding was perfect except when the lion bit Elvis in the pelvis

From there they went on the lamb

But they quickly caught

They had broken into a supermarket and the groom was eating the ham

And she planned to wait for him even if he went away for a lot

He was put back in the zoo in a locked cage

While she petitioned the governor for a conjugal

But he said in coitus they could not engage

So the lion had to get by with her substitute A stacked bengal

As the years passed Aunt Sue continued to visit every Sunday

And they shared a love like no other

Until Sue learned her lion husband was actually gay

And was in love with the bengal’s brother
