This recipe is a piece of cake,
something easy and quick to make.
Start out one big fat overpriced wedding,
turn up the heat to a comfortable setting.
Immediately peel off all of your clothes
and slowly add the kids you chose.
You'll find yourself adding thyme
and pinchs of Rosemary will be fine.
Put the lid on real, real tight,
simmer for 20 years or until you fight,
I assure you this secret recipe works
eliminates spouses and unwanted jerks.

I smiled and winced at the same time as I read this piece, for it is sadly true. Excellent rhythm and rhyme. Thanks so much for entering my contest!
