                     Ya Gotta LOVE Him!                                     

                                        My husband is trying to learn French                                                                                                      He sounds like he is gargling and brushing his teeth                                                                        His frustration is evident as the computer chastises his speech                                                                     It is wrong to talk to a computer with no brain                                                  And I say, "that guy in there does not know how to teach"

                                  My darling must have marbles in his mouth                                                                                             Then he has his accent mocked again by a machine.                                      This is nothing less than gosh darn mean!

                                           My relatives are of German descent.                                              So I have not tried the language program that talks back                                  And have set aside such an endeavor because in fact                                                             I know my talent lacks,                                                                  I cannot grunt while I talk without some nasty taste                                   So while he is busy learning French I leave with haste                                             And when he begins his daily punishment                                                                 Please don't ask where I went!
