We need a strong team leader,
a fighter with a positive vibe,
who’ll turn around our fortunes,
and this family club revive.
His falling was appalling,
but by the ref, left overlooked.
He deserved his marching orders, or
certainly should have been booked.
It was superfluous to their needs,
a carbuncle coming to a head.
They needed to lance the boil
in order to forward tread.

True, he set the bench mark,
but he was also up for a lark.
So he nipped her off to Greenwich,
for lunch near the Cutty Sark.
Knowing the answer was the easy bit.
Putting it right meant a new dimension.
So with cards on the table they both agreed,
That to separate was never their intension.
Exhausted on every level
They lay entwined in deepest slumber
And slept til dawn appeared
My God, were they in lumber!
During idle thoughts
As he watched dusk take over the day
Came into his mind that dreaded woman
The one he shouldn’t have let get away.
Thoughts of a promised wonderland
Years of planning gone to waste
Only playing second fiddle
As back home, he always raced.
A life lived as planned
should be considered a
fortunate hand.

He could see all too clearly now,
that what he had mistaken for love
was no more than need on her part.
She’d used him as an emotional lever
and consequently broken his heart.
