A love in verse

Schubert

Already I’ve forgotten what you wore

Sunday, standing by the fridge; it was black,

And your arm supported the broom you were

About to use; but I remember

The studied intensity about your brow and eyes

As with hand gracing

The air before your face you conducted

Schubert’s B flat Sonata played by Brendel

If there were reincarnation

Through a thousand lives I would remember

Those moments when I saw into 

The soul most lovable whom I most love.

Away

I passionately long to stand, hands in the bowl

Washing up, looking out onto our sunlit garden.

I long to see a cat move sleepily and pause

The Wind

Peter stands, Alison stands

This is the story of our life

They stand together holding hands...
