Girls’ Night Out

Two married women heard of a new wine bar
And wondered what they would find.
Asked one of the other, “Do you feel forlorn,
For leaving our husbands behind?”

Said the other, “Perish the thought.
My husband is hardly a guy I miss.
I left him, tonight, without a backward glance,
Let alone a goodbye kiss.

Now, marriage is all well and good,
And the children are wonderfully fine.
But when it comes to husbands,
After fifteen years, I very much prefer wine.”
