Nuptiallis Interruptus.

Twas on that tragic wedding day
before they made their vows,
the lightning struck them both, they say
they took their final bows.

So at St. Peter’s pearly gate
this lovestruck couple said
“Scuse me, could you tell us mate
if we can still be wed?”

St. Peter said he didn’t know
he’d never seen it done.
He told them he would have to go
and check it with God’s Son.

A week or two and still no sign
as they discussed detail.
A heavenly Wedding could be fine
but what if it should fail?

The rules of Paradise might mean
that they could never part.
Such cruelty would be obscene
to crush each other’s heart.

A month went by before St Pete
came back to say “They could..
But before his answer was complete
they asked him if he would,
find out what happens should they fight,
would God have to enforce
the couple may have to stick tight
or could they still divorce?

St. Peter seethed like a raging beast
“Well you’ll have to wait here in the foyer.
Took me four bloody weeks just to find you a priest
where the **** now will I find a lawyer?”

(Yes: Another joke put to rhyme)
