–
They were very good
friends until they realised
that the lady was so beautiful
to ignore or sit on fence.
–
Blame them not,
but ‘am much pitiful
Of them for all was gone
So far between them.
–
They put all on stake,
They didn’t see her so fake,
In eyes she was a hot cake
That none ignore for love sake.
–
They seemed to all thrive,
The lady was so smart,
It was so easy to play even five,
All point at her like in dart.
–
She was a sure bet,
That men go for in soccer,
Her thighs catwalks than a hawker
Though mouth speak spikes that deter.
–
So good she is, no surprise,
But two best friends got a prize,
The one they didn’t called for,
She was gone as they remained foes.
