cold hands warm heart
he was very cold
time to heat his icy hands
under the fur rug cosy and warm
watching wimbledon bless his heart
handsome is as handsome does
he's no longer young but still handsome
well i think he is
not spritely or energetic as
he used to be but a handsome
man compensates with other things he does
Yes, age has taught me the need to compensate. Curiously, it seems better than the original.
ReplyDeleteRall, I love how these poems show love in such a simple, real way, with cold hands, Wimbledon, getting older, and small kind acts all making one warm picture.
