The Compromise
by Soulo Jacob BourgeauMy father once told me
a happy wifes a cinch
agree, obey and meet her
halfway plus an inch
love is wise forgiving
with luck even reciprocal
logic will only get you
a female stare so typical
02/13/2007 Author's Note: Compromise: "When both parties are equally unhappy." I heard that quote recently, just had to add it..lol (04/19/07)
