She looked into his eyes lovingly and whispered, "sweep me off my feet, Walter, pick me up and lift me, take me upstairs!"
"All 150 steps?" said the lighthouse keeper.
When he eventually reached the top of the spiral staircase, he lowered her down to the floor and sat on a chair wheezing and coughing out of breath.
As he recovered, she kissed him and said, "turn the lights out and hug me tonight!"
"But how about the ships?" said the lighthouse keeper, "they rely on the lights!"
She got angry with him and said, "Walter, our love is on the rocks!"
"That's inevitable," said the lighthouse keeper, "considering where we are."
And the moral of the story is:
DO NOT DATE A LIGHTHOUSE KEEPER

...is unrequited love is a sad way to have a relationship.

ReplyDeleteRather than ponder all day, I'll let Neil Diamond take the mic: "Love on the rocks ain't no surprise, pour me a drink,
and I'll tell you some lies. Got nothing to lose, so you just sing the blues, all the time."
... or, Good time Walter's got the blues.
Very good, Mevely. I wish I'd remembered Neil Diamond. Well done.
DeleteGod bless always, my friend.
Thanks for the smile, Victor.

DeleteDo not marry a woman who wants to be carried that far!
ReplyDeleteIn fact, as St. Paul said, if you want to save yourself a lot of trouble, don't marry.
Yes, I remember him saying that.
DeleteGod bless, Mimi.
Hi Victor, I married a mechanic, and I have to say that it worked wonderfully. I always say that if my husband was in charge of the finances we would be broke, if I was in charge of the mechanics the car wouldn't start. It is often true that two opposites attract. I loved mathematics when I was in school, and looking after the finances is my priority. We have had a long, wonderful marriage filled with happiness that is still ongoing.
ReplyDeleteWorking together in harmony; the secret to a successful marriage. Congratulations Brenda. God bless you and your husband and family.
DeleteYou leave me speechless. Another deep conundrum you have shared with us here.
ReplyDeleteMy thinking is on a higher level when I am up on a lighthouse.
DeleteGod bless, Barbara.
