I've always been a goodly wife

Committed to the married life

Til last year on that fateful day

A new love stole my heart away

It happened on my morning walk

While in the midst of girlfriend talk

I suddenly became aware

Of something magic in the air

There in, one of the Junction's nooks

He stood, with smoldering good looks

Just waiting with his treats so rare

To trap me in his lover's snare

All hopes of my remaining chaste

Where dashed, since he was just my taste

With spice and sweetness quite unique

And buns that made my knees go weak

When I confessed to husband dear,

My lover he refused to fear

And said he liked the way my mood

With this new passion had improved

Now to my love, with wanton lust

I freely go, for I can trust

Each day he'll have what I most want

A fresh, twice baked, almond croissant
