Another poem.... oh no!!!!

Some people know i love writing poems for them.....
Well this is dedicated to 'some people'...
I did write it though...

THE CONJURING HUSBAND

The nicest husband in the land,

Is one who lives by sleight of hand

At morn for instance – one two three

Coffee and cream are flowing free

And with a few more magic thumps

He fills the sugar bowl with lumps

While sausage, rolls and all of that

He takes of course, from his old hat

Though there may be of wood a dearth

He builds a fire upon the hearth

And turns a pair of worn out shoes

To meet as good as one could choose

All else that a feast would please

He takes from a nightcap with ease

And without trouble or ado

Himself can roast or boil or stew

At noon and evening tis the same

She cares for naught that lucky dame

What e’er is needed for her use

His magic wand will quick produce

Fresh toilets in the newest style

Are ready in a little while

Wraps, gold and jewel; in short, all

That she may long for, grate or small

Scarcely has she the wish complete.

Before he lays it at her feet

And yet- you’ll wonder it should be-

The two will sometimes disagree

And whatsoe’er he may provide

She will remain unsatisfied

In such case, as in others too

His sleight of hand will help him through

If unendurable grows she

A cloth thrown o’er her- one two three-

And silently she disappears

The household war no more one hears.
