“Love doesn't make the world go round”
Elizabeth Barrett
Browning said with a smile
Before she added by
way of qualification
“Love is what makes
the ride worthwhile”

“Pedants Society Meeting Here”
The sign on the door
read
“Every Sunday at four”
“Well not here exactly
here”
The sign below added
“But in the room
behind this door”
Throughout the worst of the pandemic
I had to work from
home in my flat
But I had technical
issues occasionally
When my keyboard was
claimed by the cat
Are you wearing Brazilians?
It’s very bold of you
to mention
Oh they’re some kind
of knickers
I clearly wasn’t
paying attention
I must admit my mind
wandered
When I heard you say
Brazilian
Somebody complimented me
On my driving today,
that’s right mine
They even left a
little note to say
And the envelope read
‘Parking Fine.’
I don’t like sitting
In traffic, because I
get
Run over, always
The thing that gives me anxiety
Are people reading my stories
But even worse than that are
People not reading my stories
