Round Robin Sonnet (Final?)

Her family fell apart when father left,
successors never reached his memory;
mother and children were a bit bereft.
Daddy had become an allegory.

She caught her man in a different way;
shotgun wedding, the first mistake was made.
Mom and babes narrowly escaped that fray
to a gentler man who came to their aid.

Six darlings later, she finally learned
the deep secrets of her fertility.
Her husband, though, had already earned
champion title for virility.

One little spermatozoon was so strong;
quickly broke the rubber and proved her wrong.
