Bon Voyage!

 When we fell in love
We not only rocked the boat
We sank the whole ship!


Holding hands, we jumped
Our life boat was each other
And we rode the waves.

$1.99

Welcome to the estate sale!
Come on in and look around
See anything you like?
Oh yes, it's all yours, isn't it?
Or rather, it was.
Now it's fodder 
For the Saturday morning junk hunters.

Table and chairs--$100
Floor lamp--$25
Potted plant--$2.50
Like you, it's not alive.

The sofa with its arm covers
Barely even used
The cut glass chandelier
Still casts a harsh glare
Also like you
But it's never felt so warm here
Now that you're cold.

And look! Here's your photo!
In a lovely gilded frame
Million dollar smile?
Yours, $1.99.
