Putting Cupid's Arrows on Ice

It's time for Cupid to retire.

 

When Cupid's arrow struck Romeo and Juliet
Leading to three days of
Romance, marriage, murder and sex
What were the results?

Suicide and death
There must be a better way to find love.
When Romeo discovers who Juliet is
Minutes after meeting her, he says, "
Is she a Capulet?
O dear account! my life is my foe's debt."
Let's put Cupid's arrows on ice
Replacing him with
Yenta the matchmaker
From Fiddler on the Roof
Reducing the divorce rate.

Lloyd, so glad to see you writing again, and raising a little hell.
You may be right about Cupid, but, hell, nobody have said that love
was easy. -gene.

My mom says ‘If you can’t say anything nice then don’t say anything’. Sorry mom but under the guise of poetic license I penned these beauties.
