This appealed to me not because I have had lots of wives but it set me wondering just how many husbands the lady or maybe you have had a nice poem with a big question mark. Kooky

Actually, I have been married three times. I guess third time is charm. I am my husband's fourth wife. We have been married 38 years. He is my Best. Thanks for the stars and comments. Blessings. Cindy
Comment from C. Gale Burnett
Oh my gosh Cindy. This one had me in stitches.
I could either imagine you've had a few, or this man has been your one and only. Either way makes me laugh. Great entry for the contest!

I am his 4th wife and he is my 3rd husband. We have two grown children and three grand boys after 38 years. That is one of the things we say to each other. He is my best friend. Blessings. Cindy
Comment from SimianSavant
It is nice to know that I am not only your husband, but the best one. But seriously I say this to my (only) nephew all the time. Hello favorite nephew! Hello favorite youngest brother! Mother, you are my favorite mother in the world. It's a compliment that wins every time.

Haha. Hopefully you don't have all the husbands at once. That would be bigayou...or bigamy or....never mind. Anyway, quite the little bit of humor this evening. Thanks! :)

Comment from lancellot
Hmm, this is funny. This person may have the right idea. More the merrier.
Out of all my husbands,
You the Best.
This is eight words but so is this:
Out of all my husbands,
You're the Best.

I did not think the word, You're would count for one word. That was my first choice. Thanks, Blessings. Cindy
Comment from LisaMay
This brought me a bemused smile... wondering if the husbands know about the bigamy, whether you have killed them off one by one etc. Only 8 words but you set me thinking.
Suggestion: You should be You're (as in: 'You are')

In a word count program it would be one word; that's why a lot of flash fiction has contractions, to save words.

I changed it. Thanks. Blessings.

I'm sure it will be fine. After all, the word "it's" is counted as one word but it is actually a contraction of 2 words.

I liked your poem. It is very hard to get your point or message across with only eight words. You did an excellent job with your eight words. It brought a smile just reading those words. Not sure if you meant it as a compliment to this husband or tongue in cheek. Either way it worked.

Absolute compliment. He tells me, I'm the best, out of all his wives. We have both been married several times before. Blessings. Cindy
