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!

Cassie, Fifteen

Now you have made a great day.

As sleep draws curtains over Cassie’s mind

Sweet and lasting things are left behind...

"Guess What, Love"

Sometimes you don’t remember she’s gone

-You should, it’s quiet- in the rooms, outside

And it’s quiet because she’s died...
