, Delighted All The Time Poem by Louise Tredoux

I know I’ve shocked Rudi, maybe even I
know life can’t be so perfect, but at least
we can try to have fun at some tourist sites

Surely just walking about and checking the
boring stuff pointed out by world-weary
guides can’t bring much joy

We’ve all seen it pictures, we need to add the
unexpected, playing at being a tourist is NOT
my strong point, I’m a dreamer

Embroidering reality, with Rudi next to me, we
can change routine actions into something new;
at least he has something to think about

The way he acts at night, I think it is doing
him good – as for me; I’m delighted
all the time!
