A love in verse

Regret?

When I was young, my bells were rung

For impossible adventures

It’s not the same, no bells proclaim

When you’re sixty-six with dentures.

But I don’t really care at all

For I have you and you’re my all


A subtler sound the years have found

I hear it in my heart

The things we’ve done, the love, the fun

Set all old dreams apart

Regret? I feel there’s nothing dafter

For I have you and I hear laughter.

My young love rests, hopefully sleeps

In the afternoon in Spring – she

Causes the cold bird to sing, she...

Needs Must

All through the years every now and then

I’ve made my lists and packed my bag

To leave old Brentford town again...
