The law is old-fashioned
Marriages it tries to save
But parties rush to court
For cooling period to waive
Milords may be wondering
To be married or not to be?
Let's do the good deed of
Setting trapped couples free
Statutes are to be obeyed
Supreme milords may tweak
Laws sometimes look dumb
So milords make them speak
What Supreme ones decide
Is followed by all who are high
Subordinate courts cannot ask
How can this be done..or why?
Thus a high milord directed
"Free this eager couple in a day!
The poor fellow needs peace
For his IPL team to play!"
Many others forced to play
On Family Court's sticky wicket
Feel such respect for spinners
Is contrary to the laws of cricket!
