Love's Lessons
A Poem for the Love in 50 Words Challenge
Lessons in love are hard to learn. - Michelle Liew
******************************************************************
Barry swore his love was true,
till Linda with his best man flew
A lesson learned, a bitter sting
Love's more than just a diamond ring.
Now he woos with caution new,
Armed with prenups, chocolates too.
He seeks love in sweet tweets,
But gets ghosted there twice- deja vu!

He needs a break, stop looking, let it happen au naturale
Maybe Barry is meant to stay single, did he ever think of that? Great poem
Poor Barry! Very clever wordsmithing, Michelle!

Barry, just stay single and enjoy your freedom. Women are seriously not worth it
