JOE AND JANEA Poem by Prateeksha Khota quirky and funny poem about friends who discover love in each otherOnce a boy Joe and a girl Jane, fell in love- Fools both of them. Such fools, that you will never find, another pair again. Said the boy to the girl "Let's marry." "Yes! Yes!", said the girl, "But we must hurry". and pondered a lot, 'Smart as I am(she said) I now have a doubt. You want to marry, (Yes I do, he said) and I want to marry too, ('That you have already said') But who will marry the two of
us?' 'Don't make a fuss. This is a great problem, It makes me think; It surely does. But I have an idea. ('Oh what is it?') Let's put an AD in the newspaper, It will cost us only a bit. My AD will say : WANTED A BEAUTIFUL BRIDE and yours will say : MY PRINCE CHARMING SHOULD ON A
HORSE RIDE.' of themselves feeling proud. And being jolly and gay, they went singing aloud. they eagerly went to see, if they had any response from someone, But to their shock and to their surprise, They each had only one. and read it with pride, Because it said : I WOULD CONSIDER MYSELF LUCKY, TO BE YOUR BRIDE. and the name 'Jane ' was written at the side. And when she opened hers it said : 'WITHOUT YOU PRINCESS, I WOULD CONSIDER MYSELF AS GOOD AS DEAD. CONSIDER ME AS A FRIEND AND NOT AS A FOE.' And the name written at the end was 'Joe'. It seemed each had upon the other's AD chanced by, and wanting a partner very much themselves, had decided to reply. and he blushed too. ' I AM MARRYING YOU JANE',he said, ' WILL YOU MARRY ME TOO?' She said YES and he was happy, and they got married later. And rest be assured that they lived happily ever after. Years later when they thought of the problem they had had, They congratulated themselves on finding a 'BRILLIANT SOLUTION'. that was not at all bad. © 2010 Prateeksha KhotAuthor's Note
