A love in verse

Sonnet: We Argue

We Argue – harmony has some bum notes

Uninterrupted bliss is not our scene

My poems suggest our love has nothing mean

Or bad about it – joy gets all the votes


To reach that far we’d both have to be saints

By definition saints cannot be married

A saint without you? I’d rather be buried

So let’s have love with no holy restraints


We’re human and we love as humans do

Coming together sometimes gives off sparks

And in the light we see how passions arc

From bright to storm and back our whole life through.


The storms are few and frankly give a sauce

To love and living it without remorse.

Quiet Please

On this still Sunday afternoon,

My love lies down to rest.

Brentford, sing her a soothing tune...

You Are Here

You are here 

The walls lose the sun, the last shard

Of light caught beneath the eaves...
