A love in verse

My 82nd

I gladly raise this glass of scotch

To my girl Allie Rose, my love

Who bought the bottle, certain of

It’s good reception – she will watch

Her old man sink it happily

Simply glad to be with me

 

All the things I’d like to say

About her she just said to me!

While I embraced her strenuously

Such things she said quite blew away

My gladdened heart – she is so dear

Birthdays and always I’ll be near

To her till I am very old

Drinking her whisky, sweet and gold

Naïve?

We’re made for love and we’ve retained

That childhood dream despite the care

And hard frustrations that have rained...

Journey’s End

This the train then, this the seat

Which will carry, which will bear

A tired, loving, longing Pete...
