A love in verse

Not Perfect

Though your sweet voice frightens the cat

I cannot have enough of that

Stentorian snores disturbing air

I love – cos it means you are there. 

Asleep after the very first clue – 

I say “sweet dreams dear – I love you”

And glasses lost ten times today?

There’s mine to borrow anyway

The wine stock drastically reduced?

Still by your eyes I am seduced

Though (unlike me) you’re not perfection

You’re kind and give me an erection!

In Bath

Though you cannot see my face

Let this note for now replace

That far from lovely feature...

Chemo

I look at you asleep in the dim

Dining room’s post meridian gloom

And think, how fortunate is this room...
