Advice to Dorothy as She Elopes with the Tin Man
I can’t fathom your reasons. Why would you settle
for an older lover who’s made out of metal?
It’s good to be flexible, but don’t you think
that this is a rather impossible link?
Your honeymoon’s bound to be rather a bust.
If you go to the beach, he is likely to rust,
or if you go skiing, his joints will freeze rigid.
It’s hard to make love to a tin man who’s frigid!
You’re young and you’re limber. Your life’s at its start.
Why pick a lover who hasn’t a heart?
Please take my advice when it comes to men:
no lions, no scarecrows, no men made of tin.
Since they brought up the subject of Alice in Wonderland, I had to publish this one again for dVerse Poets Open Link

Very enjoyable. I like the other Tin Man poem too, but this one really hits the spot.
