Dear Mystery Writer,
Nice! This poem - rather lengthy, actually - was handled well and the meter was really good throughout. There were a couple of bumps here and there, but even Shakespeare 'bumped' at times, to my way of thinking. *smile* Great entry - good luck!

To be compared with Shakespeare, that suits me down to the ground, lol. Thank you, Robyn.

A very well written poem using random word prompts and weaving them into the poetic story. I enjoyed it. The pic is also very apt. Good luck in the contest! Happy New Year!

You captured my attention from the first word to the last

her man.
Thank you for sharing

Comment from jake cosmos aller
what a fun poem and loved the ending The next day when she met the wives, she gave a woeful cry,
"Forgive me please," she begged them. When they smiled she gave a sigh.
Now all the wives are happy that their men are not bewitched--
and they made sure they'd stay that way and got the lady hitched!

Comment from Goodadvicechan
This is a joke story (poem) that will make you laugh.
The author is good in choosing a beautiful picture. You deliver a good message that most wives are jealous. What the wives do can be a joke but it fits this contest. I still gave it a FIVE.

This is a delightful tale of a very resourceful group of women. Getting the temptress married off quick was smart. I enjoyed this read, thanks for sharing. :)

So it was a love potion that saved the day! Much better than poisoning her.
I can tell you've had fun writing this, and it was a lot of fun to read to see where you were going with it. You've integrated the required words well and the rhyme and rhythm carry the story along nicely.
