Old Romantic Poem by Lee Fones

Whoever said romance is dead
Today heard a lovely story
No horror violence or dread
Smut sex nothing gory
Its true friendship in the ends
Since nineteen fifty three
They both were good friends
Going out for nice cup of tea
They always kept in contact
No naughty hanky panky
That wasn't in any contract
Certainly void of any spanky
Now alas its twenty fifteen
Well they'd been buddies
Since they were in there teens
Both at the time doing studies
Many years have surpassed
Both soon to be wed
Said she'll be first and last
Finally can taste her Irish soda bread
