Last Night Poem by kelvin karani

I did not see it coming
“You must promise me before I come, ” she said
Silent I became with the phone on my ear
I would have argued otherwise but instead,
I said, your wish is my command

She would sleep things over I thought
And waited with bated breath for the relief
But how wrong I was, I must be very daft
She begged, pleaded and insisted
She had made her choice and that was that!

When she first said, “No more fun! ”
A joke I thought it was
And so at the ready it was, this gun
Ready to do bodily harm at point blank
But it was all castles in the air, the bricks are now mud

It was hard I must say
To sleep in the cold until that day
When the priest said, “you can now kiss the bride”
No regrets, it paid off anyway
I am a happy grandpa’, she’s my pride

I just don’t know how I made it
Years on top not between sheets
Sheets so warm, thick, comfy and horny
And then I became a die-hard tea picker
Always singing; two leaves and a bud
Two leaves and a bud indeed!
