There was a young woman
Who lived in a shoe,
She had so many children
It felt like a zoo.
No sandal could hold them
No sneaker or clog.
10 children plus animals-
cats, fish and dog.
She had several husbands
#'s 1,2 and 3.....
Who croaked before she did
Once again she was free
#4 was a bum
He died of a stroke
All husbands had left her
Lonely and broke
Now older, not wiser
It was time to move on
All of the children had
Grown up and spawned
To Florida she goes
For some fun and some sun
To meet #5
Now our poem is done

I love it ... I am SO LAUGHING ... and there's a story behind the laughter~

Just last Friday I went to my beauty salon,
a woman came in while I was getting my hair done who NEVER SHUT HER MOUTH ... she blathered on and on and on ... in a voice that could be heard by all patrons and workers whether they wanted to hear her or not~

She was 46 years old ... had been married and divorced 4 times ... LOL ... was getting a 'new' look so she could set out to attempt to snare #5 !

I swear this is true ... this reminded me of this~
