She had no sense of humour, you say, but you definitely do. This is hilarious.
Personally I think the rhyme is perfect.
Thanks for sharing.

Hi Ogden,

I'd say it sounds like you were incompatible from the beginning. At least she wasn't picking out China patterns and registering for your nuptials lol You did a good job and providing specific details, adding humor, and yes, all of your rhymes were fine. Good luck in the contest.

Come on admit it. You miss her. You know you do. You'll always remember her as the one that got away. The fact that she won the lottery has nothing to do with it.

    No, obviously the lottery thing didn't move me. I'm not suggesting it's the reason you appear to find her so appealing, Thomas, but apparently you found her description a turn-on, and I suspect you intend to pursue her. Help yourself. The truth will come out in the end.

Your couplets DO rhyme. It isn't the word "her" you are rhyming, and your result is smooth rhyming rhythm. I wouldn't change a word. Good luck with this. I really like it.

Oh wow....I hope this wasn't true, a date from hell, indeed!! The no sense of humor would have doomed it...I know people like that. BORING. Good luck in this contest, blessings...

A very well-written poem about a relationship that should be better not to start at all from the start. There are either an instant connection or it will take a long time to even get to a connection.

Nice attempt at humor. Liked it. A fun read.
Wish you had continued the rhyming pattern. Her followed by her stopped me.
One suggestion in the last line I would suggest the word should instead of must. But, your preference as the author

This is a very clever work of writing that keeps the author interested from beginning to end. The dialog is certainly entertaining, and the overall packaging of the work is well done also. I give it five stars for it's entertainment value, which did the right work on me! Many thanks for a fun read. HIS GRAYNESS: Vance
