A love in verse

Wot a Girl

1991-04-02
Performed by
Lydia Wilson

She climbs in the car

Fag in mouth and hair in wind

Fiddles with the door and waves

Having caught my eye.

Returns, complaining “cold”

Black trousers, karate jacket

Finds a scarf and has a word

Goes back to the car

And I think “never say die”

I love her a lot.

Mafeking Avenue

A woman who’s been through the world

And travelled the length of life and seen

And suffered, loved, enjoyed and been...

Sorrow

You looking sad across the table

And me wishing I were able

To make some mirth have birth in those blue eyes...
