A love in verse

Pretty Okay

I can’t crib at being alive

It ain’t too bad. I got this place – 

A woman with a smashing face

(And other things) I took to wive

Not wealthily, but happily – 

Yeah, the world’s okay for me


Well, she transformed it in a sense – 

I went along, quite bright of mind

But to things of the heart quite blind

Messing my life – in short, real dense

She changed all that. Her eyes are blue. 

Her hair is gold. Her love is true.

The Spell

The windows are grimy: I think of you 

And they’re translucent suddenly

The day is grey but with a few...

Hope +

Even the dull eternal afternoon 

Lit dustily by sun on the Eastern side

Of dear old Mafeking gleams...
