In the heat of summer
  Two people changed vows,
Femme Fatale gained a brother.
  I gained a sister somehow.
In purusing some verses
  Long forgotten in dust
She gave muse's curses
  And begged me I must,
Write a few lines,
  A verse here and there,
To help pass the time
  With new sister, ma chere.
But on writing the first
  I found to my glee
What I thought was the worst
  Brought new friends to me.
And here my friends are
  Both old and new
Sharing their art
  With us lucky few.

Chivalry is not dead.  I saw it coughing up lung butter last night, but it was still alive.  I think it has parvo.
