*WASHINGTON POST COMPETITION ASKED FOR A TWO-LINE RHYME WITH THE MOST
ROMANTIC FIRST LINE, BUT THE LEAST ROMANTIC SECOND LINE*
* *
* This is the winner *
*My darling, my lover, my beautiful wife, *
* Marrying you screwed up my life. *
* *
* I see your face when I am dreaming. *
* That's why I always wake up screaming. *
* *
* Kind, intelligent, loving and hot; *
* This describes everything you are not. *
* *
* I thought that I could love no other -- *
* that is until I met your brother. *
* *
* Roses are red, violets are blue, sugar is sweet, and so are
you.*
* But the roses are wilting, the violets are dead, the sugar
bowl's empty and so is your head. *
* *
* I want to feel your sweet embrace; *
* But don't take that paper bag off your face. *
* *
* I love your smile, your face, and your eyes -- *
* Damn, I'm good at telling lies! *
* *
* My love, you take my breath away. *
* What have you stepped in to smell this way? *
* *
* My feelings for you no words can tell, *
* Except for maybe 'Go to hell.' *
* *
* What inspired this amorous rhyme? *
* Two parts tequila, one part lime*
