Stung


Mary Fraser,

Blue eyed beauty;

Land and title caught her eye.

Wed in haste

And now repenting;

All her plans have gone awry.

~0~

Trapped with drunk and,

Rage filled husband;

Bound to him

By marriage vow;

Dreams about a

Fair haired Captain

Wonders what he's doing now.

~0~

Wisdom gained with wedding ring;

Fortune came with hidden sting;

Money isn't everything.
