A love in verse

From All Mankind

If my love should live forever

She’ll go on murdering crosswords cos

(No one can deny) she’s clever

Inbuilt brilliance – she can toss

A clue to cause Einstein vexation

Off with zero hesitation


Taste? She’s got it in great buckets

Music, books, art – and her cooking! – 

Patient, too, you’ll hear no “Fuck its”

And, on top, she’s so good looking 

But as for proof of her great taste, she

Went and chose from all mankind – Me


Tall, svelte, muscular, at DIY

I’m the best, patient and kind

Where I go the girls all sigh

“Handsome, intelligent, refined”

They say. “But Alison’s destroyed our hopes

We’ll go back home and watch the soaps”.

From enforced tiredness to pep...

Always Time for a Replay

What is the story of your life? 

I have a friend – she is my wife...
