Sunday Scribblings had a topic 'Hitch'. Now, there are a number of possible meanings...
Three-way Hitch
A girl in the Shire,
Fancied the squire,
But, a hitch! He didn't want to date her.
So the little flirt
Hitched up her skirt
And encouraged his lordship to mate her.
He swears he declined
To be so entwined
But they were hitched a few months later.

ReplyDeleteFirst time here, found you at Sun. Scribs. This was a saucy little poem, and the reason for the marriage was obvious!
ReplyDeleteCuriously, when I was growing up in the 60s, every single first baby on our street was born "premature." Hmmm...! Thanks for the smile, and here's my take. Amy
