A Gift for my Wife

One day I found myself in the search of my life,
While trying to find the best gift for my wife.

What shall it be? I asked myself,
Should it be something to put on a shelf?

How shall it look? I’d like to get her something divine.
Should it be something that has lots of sparkle and shine?

I know the answer, said a friend while giving me a wink,
A husband can never go wrong by giving a gift of pink.

Alas however, my well-laid plans went awry.
She wasn’t happy at all when I gave her the pink eye.
