The Lady on Her Wedding Day


I found this poem the other day that was written by Linda and I when we were MUCH younger! As you can tell we learned rhyming from our father and also learned that rhyming didn't have to make sense! Enjoy.


The Lady on Her Wedding Day


The lady on her wedding day dressed in pink,

Went home to the farm to find that hogs do stink.


The lady on her wedding day dressed in white,

Went to the beauty parlor and came out a sight.


The lady on her wedding day dressed in blue,

Went to Kalamazoo and came back with a monkey that looks like you.


The lady on her wedding day dress in green,

Went to the grocery store and came back with a little bean.


The lady on her wedding day dressed in yellow,

Went to the ball and thought she was Cinderella.


The lady on her wedding day dressed in red,

After she was fed found she was too big for her bed.


The lady on her wedding dressed in black,

Chased a bug and fell in a potato sack.


The lady on her wedding day dressed in purple,

Ate so much she turned into a circle.


By Linda and Janet Burton

I don't ever remember doing this, but it sounds like something we would do. It is a lot of fun to just be "stupid".
