A love in verse

A Fearsome Year

Come train through the forests of rain

Bring my girl to my aching arms

Into the night against the grain

Of peace I register my qualms

Don’t let her be soaked! This brutal weather

Appalls, but soon we’ll be together


The climate of our days sometimes

Not good, we’ve seen a fearsome year

Uprooted, no work, unwell, what crimes

We wondered had we committed here?

But I see her blue eyes gleam through the night

And the rain, and things are pretty alright!

Schubert

Already I’ve forgotten what you wore

Sunday, standing by the fridge; it was black,

And your arm supported the broom...

Christmas Passed

All the pounding banks and pockets take

Slowly ceases to sound

We chuck the last uneaten Christmas cake...
