there's a saying


from my side of the street
a woman must not
come married with
two left legs
the essence of
her dowry
must be the increase
in the fortunes
of her husband.
Since we married
he has built
more houses
bought more cars
his farm is bigger
in celebration of
his increased fortunes
he has brought in
another wife
I wish I had
two left legs!

  1. At first I didn't quite get the concept of two left legs...being the 'Dummy' that I am. Then it hit me. You are certainly teaching me about your culture and the humor you can put into serious situations.

    The Irish lass, never complains, we just shoot the bugger *lol*
