A Strange Tale
This is a tale of Mary Bright
Gave a left hand signal then turned right
A team of coach and horses racing by
Sent Marys bike into the sky
This accident could have been prevented
If rear view mirrors had been invented
Out came the shovels and a bin
To put the remains of Mary in
Undertakers called Hope and Pin
Created such a disgraceful sin
Started fighting over Marys bin
As they fought the crowd joined in
While this action was going on
Two body snatchers came along
This opportunity could not be passed
Picked up the bin then ran off fast
Delivering it to doctor Quinn
He took the parts out from the bin
This challenge he thought was really great
Drank two bottles of Gin to celebrate
While still inebriated from the Gin
Assembled the parts from Marys bin
When the parts were sewn up tight
He had re-produced Mary Bright
She started nagging him that night
And continued on until broad day light
Knowing that he was doing right
Returning Mary to Tommy Bright
When Tommy found she wasnt a ghost
In celebration he gave a toast
To nagging wives who I love the most
Tell you the truth Im as deaf as a post

| Ha! Made me smile. Who had the most misfortune... her or the one who puts up with her nagging. I think we know the answer to that. Good job. Keep writing. truly , Doug |
