Modern Dating


One bump, two bump, and a loooong neck

Ol' Nessie saw John by the old shipwreck

John was wandering, looking for the nearest Pokemon Gym

Nessie found herself falling in love with him

He was shorter than her, about six-foot-two

Her options were few--that would just have to do

Although Nessie usually liked to keep to herself

Being alone for too long can be bad for your health

Nessie swam right up, confident, as she was well-known

But poor John never looked up from his phone
