A love in verse

The Music Museum

Let’s go to the Music Museum again,

Let’s fulfil that silly ambition – 

Each April to October we intend to and then

Fail to maintain the ‘tradition’ – 

Well, we haven’t been this decade I know – 

Ok, twice in twenty two years!

The children when young were too bored to go

And we’d not, without our dears.

They go their own ways now, and left alone are we

Fond true lovers who love more than ever

And delight in each other and whose tastes agree

Though not too cultivated or clever – 

Loving music and old things, let’s go, you and I

To the Music Museum one day in July.

Though I’m under the spell

Of you when young, my life’s best half,

It still may not be well...

By the Aegean

Three boats ride at anchor in the calm night

Warning lights winking without respite

And the far headlands to left and right...
