Pub Chatter 4th Edition - February 25, 2018 - Prompt #3 - Write a poem based on the picture below:

'The Four Presents' by Walter Crane

A simple girl was she,

Her home was on the water.

She was an only child,

An only beloved daughter.

When the time came for her to wed-

To marry and to settle-

She met with four suitors

To show options of every level.

The first gentleman brought a bush

In a blue earthenware pot.

The main problem with him

Was that he wore a flowery tunic top.

The next suitor brought a ram

But the lady had a shock-

He brought this creature to her

But she was allergic to livestock!

The third fellow was a scholar

And wrote on tablets of stone,

The lady didn't like that his shoes

Were red Louboutins, better than her own.

The final chap brought a simple egg

And it seemed her searched was finished.

She chose this humble man immediately as

She'd had no breakfast and was bloody famished.
