They say: Time is money.

I have a lot of time

But…have no money.

           ***

If you don’t have enough money

You better don’t call her

You are my honey.

            ***

I am looking for a husband and a friend.

If they come together I’ll withstand.

            ***

You’ve come – Thank you!

You’ve left – Thank you very much!

             ***

They say:

A real man has

To build a house,

To plant a tree,

To raise a son.

But some say:

A real woman has

To ruin a house,

To cut down a tree,

To raise a daughter.

               ***

My mother wanted a boy,

My father wanted a girl.

That’s how they’ve met.

                 ***
