The Story of Lilly Rose

Such a pretty name is hers
All call her Lilly Rose
Brings to mind, music and songs
Or kisses, hugs and ‘I love Yous’

Her person exudes magical allure
flirtatious eyes looking deeply,
enchants souls to fall freely
in love with her, so zealously

Five men have married her
All have fallen hook line and sinker
Professing fidelity and eternal love
Rings on her fingers are witnesses

First husband, said I do
Died in a car crash
Drunk driving after the theatre
During their honeymoon

Second husband a rich daddy
Got hit by a golf ball
Died instantly of a stroke
Six months after they married

Third husband drowned at sea
swallowed by a huge wave
he was just married to her
for three months and a day

Fourth died in his sleep
He had clots in his brain
Fifth died on the street
Random shooting victim

Pretty as her name is
Beauty is her frame
But whoever loves her dies
What is the good in that.
