Here lies Petie
Porcupine.
Died from drinking
hemlock wine ~
made by faithful
concubine,
who drew up will
then made him sign!

This is a playful read.You bring such life to things, that I wouldn't even think about.It shows the diversity of your inner being.

You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Linda, thank you for sharing!

Noah ~

Okay, I'll change the ending for you.

--He doesn't die!--she does!

Oh, you probably don't like that ending either. Well, how about this one--He arose from the dead and he asked his concubine to marry him. --Oh, no! The hemlonck wine was mistakenly used in the wedding ceremony and they BOTH died!

Oh, well, the good thing is the wine didn't go to waste. It was given out at the church funeral service. Oh, no! Everyone in attendence died! Noah, for your well-being, just forget you ever read my poem! lol

To Love and Happy Endings,

Yes! The concubine was "sneaky"--and she has given the rest of us a bad name!!!
