A love in verse

A Happy Chap

There is a happy chap called Pete

Whom Allie married, she’s so sweet – 

She understands each quirk (and worse!)

In both his life and in his verse

She’ll say “Look, where this line enjambs

Has got cocked up with your iambs”.

He says to her “My darling sweet,

Concern you give my metric feet

Makes me wish them (how it rankles!)

Fair as those beneath your ankles”

But, oh, their love is so complete

It makes one think ‘that’s quite a feat’.

Chaos Knits When I Kiss You

No other place I’m going to

Except the universe of your care

And I’ll be at home there...

All the Future

First day of the month I drag

My body down the station stairs

Sunny but chilly’s the verdict...
