Aunt Sue Orders the Orders
The love birds descend,
From their net on the second floor;
Ready for the day,
Headed quickly out the door.
"Wait right there!
I hope you're not headed to town...?"
Aunt Sue stands in the way,
In her pretty cotton gown.
"Good morning Aunt Sue!"
Lorne and Myna both chime.
"Yes we're headed to BG.
Have you seen the time?"
"I need to get to the bakery,
And check in with 3 Gun.
Lorne has many Mayoral duties
He needs to get done."
With a stern look...
Of motherly determination,
Aunt Sue, hands on hips,
Begins her dissertation.
"Absolutely Not!
You two listen here,
You are going on your honeymoon!
Do I make myself clear?"
Lorne looks at Myna,
Myna looks at Lorne...
Both give a giddy grin,
"Where shall we be goin'?"
"I have that all planned,
I know my niece too well,
I've packed up your saddlebags,
You're all ready to say farewell.
Just head out across the ranch,
You need a few days alone.
Sleep out under the stars,
All your business you can postpone."
Lorne grabs Myna's hand,
"You don't have to tell us twice!"
He kisses Aunt Sue on the cheek,
"We're going to take your advice!"
