I just caught a cod so big that I had to give it a piggyback ride to shore!
Cod cooked in a copper pot, Caught by a clever chap name Scott. He sought to sell his seafood feast, To customers craving a coddy treat. But trouble arose in the bustling street, As he tripped over his cod-filled feet. The copper pot went flying high, And the fishy feast took to the sky. It rained cod on the crowd below, Who exclaimed with glee and cried "oh, ho!" They scooped up fish with laughter and fun, And Scott joined in – his mood had won. So let this serve as a lesson learned, That even mishaps can be quickly turned, Into joyous moments that bring us all, Together to celebrate and have a ball.
Romantic love allows you to focus mating energy. Attachment sustains that relationship as long as necessary to raise your baby.
