TOAD WARNING
She was giving up on romance, giving pink champagne the flick
passing on the Strawberry Cheesecake that stacked on kilos so quick.
Life was not a bed of roses – but she rarely complained,
till he called out in passion.....and the name was not her name.
The silent bell of warning rung a message loud and clear.
Two make up a relationship, but seems that three are here.
So she gave him marching orders – threw him out upon the road.
Last time she believed in fairy tales – Princes don’t come from toads.

I may not always succeed in making a difference, but I will go to my grave knowing I at least tried.

I thought it was going to be a State of Origin poem Maureen.
