AN ENGAGEMENT

Folder: 
COMEDY.

There's an engagement in the family,
he asked her hand today,
my daughter plans to marry
the boy two doors away.
The matrimonial home's discussed,
they've pointed out the street.
It's centrally located
near shops for food and meat.
T'will be a long engagement,
the date they cannot fix
for the boy has just turned seven
and my little girl is six.
