The Princess Bride - Words To Live By

The Princess Bride our favourite picture; I'll say "farm boy, fetch me that pitcher" and with "as you wish" he hands me my dish, giggling reciting our "true love" scripture. 18.03.29 Composed for Alexis Y.'s Favorite Comedy Movie

Congrats, Mo! Elf seemed to be a big favorite in this contest along with Ms. Doubtfire but your take on The Princess Bride is priceless.

Hi Maureen, You have chose a modern day classic(At least I think it is). I enjoyed this movie very much. I instantly thought of pro wrestler/actor André The Giant. Congratulations on your placement in the contest:-) Alexis

I do believe it is. I was a kid watching WWF, and André The Giant in Cyndi Lauper videos ;) Thank you do much for my placement and for hosting! Inspired my first (and so far only) limerick :) Cheers! xomo
