She heard his voice, and knew in
seconds they’d be face to face.
She heard his nearing footsteps
and felt her heartbeat gather pace.

He had the delicate touch of a lump hammer.
His comments were always pile driven.
He attempted humour where angels fled.
His naivety, not always forgiven.
A broken promise,
a scurrilous deed.
An act of treason,
based on need.
An altercation,
where handbags flew,
when she discovered
he’d slept with you.
Never knock the marriage that has
worked for them, for in sitting silently
they’ve discovered harmony and pride,
and are on course for the long term ride.
When others mock your accent,
and in it find laughter and mirth,
consider them rude and untravelled,
and not a minute of time, to be worth.
Just be proud to speak in your
motherland tongue;
be proud of the place of your birth.

You came, you saw,
you loitered with intent.
I saw, I came,
I willingly did relent.
He quietly put the key in the lock,
the hour was late and he needed affection.
But the key wouldn’t budge, for he was at
the wrong house, fast realising his
memory stick had lost it’s direction.
His influence was massive,
but their respect twofold.
Both giving strength to each other,
and when needed, truth, be told.
When you awaken to find his
toes tickling your feet, and his
heart against your body, racing
at a speedy beat.
You know there’s just two seconds
to come up with a plan, to figure
where you are, and who, beside you,
is this man?
When out of the blue,
a little love bug comes calling
Flick the head of the little love bug,
and send him sprawling.
