I am guilty of misjudgement, Guilty of seeing the good. I thought I’d figured out your flaws; Was happy that I had identified each one.

Roses & Realisation
Roses are red, Sunflowers are yellow. You came across As a charming fellow. Your gestures were grand, Your sweet-talk was slick, But I finally see now, You’re a bit of a pri – mative human being.
To My Dear Prince Harry
If ever two were one, then surely we. But woe, your life has been bereft of me. Miss Markle sadly somehow took my place, Before you got to see my splendid face.

Love
‘Tis that treasured time of year When hearts and flowers do appear, Flooding displays all down the street, “Without Love, Life’s incomplete!” Without a partner, Feb is dreary (Though Pancake Day is mildly cheery), But is it better with a “bae”? Or is it still a pointless day? The Facebook posts are still too cheesy, … Continue reading
