Love Song
by Joan Dooley
I can think of the view for a moment or two,
Or even the cost of my fare.
I consider my tea for a moment or three,
But longer than that would be rare.
Thoughts of you fill my day in a wonderful way
Of this I do not complain.
But must you intrude in a manner quite rude
When I’m reluctantly cleaning the drain?
My heart is not in it but just for a minute
My whole attention it needs.
If no one will do it the fresh air will rue it.
So I must pull out the weeds.
But then you appear, I wish you were here,
For I find reality best.
So all I can say in the time honoured way
Is, will you be my guest?
This plunger is perished and I want to be cherished,
So won’t you come to me dear?
Just come with a plumber or I’ll be here all summer
And won’t be nice to be near!
I’ve been here since dawn and I feel so forlorn
And I want your loving the most.
I’m ready to sink and I do need a drink
So won’t you be my host?
I was so much in love when I wrote the above
But I’ve come down to earth with a bump.
He wasn’t all that and began to get fat
And that’s what gave me the hump.
So we said our goodbyes, no tears in my eyes
And I left poor tubby alone.
I’m going to mingle I hate being single
So may I borrow your phone?
