Aunt Lou is in Love
Let me get this straight I said to my Aunt Lou.
He’s a scholar, an athlete, a violinist too.
She nodded. He is always happy too, never blue.
Now you are telling me he can fly? Is this true?
The owl flew in the window seconds later.
He rapidly opened her refrigerator.
Where are the worms I put in here? He demanded.
I was horrified, thought he would be reprimanded.
This is my boyfriend, Tony, Aunt Lou said to me.
Why don’t you stay and have some lemon tea?
She found the worms, and Tony chuckled with glee.
I was so grossed out, I could drink my tea ….barely.
After the meal, he played his violin, and was great.
For a boyfriend, he might be kind of second rate.
But he speaks six languages and can carry a tune.
Best of all, grouchy Aunt Lou is “over the moon”.
