Gentle Reminder
GENTLE REMINDER
Should you not know
That you’re thought of
Remembered, loved
Wished well and beyond
Must’ve slipped your mind
Write it down on paper
Keep it to hand always
Reread it as need be
Relax in its warm embrace
Bosom Pals
BOSOM PALS
For Woody and happy days.
Starlight our lamplight
A widdle and a waddle
Home from the ale house
Old Friends
OLD FRIENDS
I have here two much loved books
Originally purchased at second-hand shops
(being pretty short of money in my youth – 10p each!)
I have now replaced them both in better shape
So the earlier copies are surplus to requirement
While I have looked after them carefully
(You may remember from our years together
That I’m always careful with books, discs etc.)
They were a little careworn by previous owners
So I don’t think charity shops would be interested
The content beneath the slightly dilapidated surfaces though
Is too precious to be thoughtlessly assigned to the refuse bin just yet
I recognise you as a discerning reader
And wonder whether you might not
Offer them a temporary home, another reading
Even though it might be their last
In exchange I believe you may receive herein
Some fine entertainment
Some food for thought
Let me know if interested and
I’ll package and despatch them
Reconciliation
RECONCILIATION
It is never too late
To say your peace
Unless of course
You leave it too late
Friendship Dissected
FRIENDSHIP DISSECTED
Intimate strangers
Waving at one another
Coming and going
Exchanging a word or two
Avoiding disagreement
A Role In The Hey
A ROLE IN THE HEY
Hey after all
My life could be worse
I could be you
Hey after all
You life could be worse
You could be me
Hey after all
Our life could be better
We could be one together
Freedom
FREEDOM
Not allowed to say a word
Not allowed to make a sound
Allowed to do anything
But there are consequences
Nuptials Ongoing
NUPTIALS ONGOING
She’s always found right
Whereas he’s always found wrong
He’s her perfect match
He’s probably right
Whereas she’s probably wrong
But he keeps the peace
Chiselling at it
Venturing past right and wrong
They’ve found perfect peace
Season’s Greetings
SEASON’S GREETINGS
I bless you
For reminding us
Of others
In essence
However we may view them
Not other at all
