he treated her like a real wife and seemed quite happy
and I can sort of see some of the benefits he had
no arguments no cheating no divorce no toilet seat hassles

until she met another guy and left me for him

rather than risk being separated in the Unknown

they glide elegantly upon water
but make no mistake about it
they will attack you in a minute

She claimed it was love at first sight
when she met her wealthy husband
people who knew her avarice ways
said it was his money at first sight

Buddha sat under the Bodhi tree
and became enlightened
like tree branches spreading
his fame spread all over the world
