A love in verse

My 68th

All the cares and despairs of busy days

Can never outweigh my deep content

For I live by your eyes and kindly ways,

Which blessings are the best that God has sent

And all the gathering clouds that may dismay

Shan’t quench of my dear sun a single ray

There is no special time for celebration

Birthday? Each hour you bring me such elation.

To Scotland

We met in Scotland: to her I say

Greetings on St Andrew’s Day!

She’s sort of Scottish by consent...

A Fearsome Year

Come train through the forests of rain

Bring my girl to my aching arms

Into the night against the grain...
