Forget love — I'd rather fall in chocolate! ~Sandra J. Dykes

Malcolm and Ruby had a wild fling
Malcolm and Ruby had a great thing
When Ruby kissed Malcolm he saw hearts
When Malcolm kissed Ruby she saw stars
It was all pretty rosy until along came Ned
Made poor Malcolm wish he was dead
Cause pretty Ruby saw a future of wealth
and all Malcolm had to offer was love and health
After 2 months Ned and Ruby were split
for only plants can grow when they are planted in shit
Now Ruby wants Malcolm back and she wants him bad
but Malcolm don't want Ruby cause she's a gold diggin' hag
After all the drama Malcolm got wiser
and eventually Ruby met a rich old miser
the moral of the story true love is always free
and their are always plenty of fish in the deep blue sea.

  5. I love those names together --- Malcolm and Ruby. I guess because it reminds me of the bunny brother and sister, Max and Ruby. :)

    "When Ruby kissed Malcolm he saw hearts
    When Malcolm kissed Ruby she saw stars" ... These are my favorite lines. I tend to gloss over any unhappy endings and just keep living in the lovey sections, even of what may have ended. So I'll just stay right here with these lines when I remember them. :)

  9. Witty! This poem hits where it hurts the most!
    Love the rhymes and effortless description! The quote in the beginning justifies it so much for Malcolm - If he likes chocolates ;)
