There are so many Ladies that I've left behind,
By Yours Truly for I'm the 'Caddish' kind.
Take Two fine girls down the Argentine Way,
Who Teared right-up when I couldn't stay.
I just had to leave and toddle-on Home,
And leave those Dames Weeping all alone.
So I said straight out in the Town Cantina:
Don't Cry for me - Marge and Tina.

Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it.
You are most welcome
I groaned, laughed, then groaned again, Kevin. Exactly as intended. Loved it my friend! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it. And for the fave.
Seems both Sorren and Tristan have pinched my commentary here, so I've nothing left to add but 'Gertcha'---
'And: 'Oh that was a funny one; tell me anothery ******************* tell me anothrey do'
Well it just so happens...
Nice play on Evita’s ‘Argentina’ and the journey that brings on the waterworks.
'Oh what a Circumstance'. Thank you for Reading and sending a Comment. 👍
There’s a damn wonderfully cheeky old-school music-hall quality here, with the exaggerated cad, cantina, Argentine setting, and melodramatic weeping all playing together like a comic little stage number. The final “Don’t Cry for me - Marge and Tina” is the killer, because the whole poem has been marching toward that gloriously shameless parody of Evita.
Happy you enjoyed it. Thank you for Reading and sending a Comment. 👍
I've not always been a saint myself, but I have more kids than Ive left broken hearts... I have a lot of kids though!
Enjoyed your poem. Clever wrap up!
The only Child I have is myself.
Glad you enjoyed it.
