LETTERS
(An Acrostic)

Loving notes sent through the mail;

Everlasting paper trail;

Treasured items through the years

Thoughts that bring a smile or tears

Every letter a surprise

Ready for enquiring eyes.

Saved and savoured as they're read;

Do you prefer email instead?

(Surely not!)

DISILLUSION

"I know I told you on Saturday night

That we had a future that was really bright.

But then you were in that satin dress

And you looked a vision of loveliness.

I loved the way it reached your ankles.

But here's the thing that really rankles....

Now you've stripped off to your bra

And panties, I can see you are

So much sturdier than before,

When your pretty dress reached to the floor.

All my passion has evaporated.

It cannot be too firmly stated.

I somehow cannot take my eyes

Off those really enormous thighs!"
