Category: Funny Love and Courtship Poems
Classic humorous and funny poems about love, courtship, marriage, and true love. Short poems, love poems, and romantic poems. THE NUN  f you become a nun, dear,
A friar I will be;
In any cell you run, dear,
Pray look behind for me.
The roses all turn pale, too;
The doves all take the veil, too;
The blind will see the show:
What! you become a nun, my dear!
I'll not believe it, no.
If you become a nun, dear,
The bishop Love will be;
The Cupids every one, dear,
Will chaunt "We trust in thee";
The incense will go sighing,
The candles fall a dying,
The water turn to wine:
What! you go take the vows, my dear!
You may--but they'll be mine.
Leigh Hunt.
