Priorities Poem by Daniel Trevelyn Joseph

Priorities



Her priorities are clear:
Her cats, dogs- the ill
And uncared for: next
The people who look after them,
Who can treat them;
Bridge teacher, her friends
Who play Bridge with her.
And later in the day
Rummy group in the CCI;
Iyra and Sameer it used to be
Now Sameer is away and off;
Then Jotimma of course on top
Of everything, then Seetha
And Rani, and the maali (gardener)
Has green fingers and twisted face,
Facebook messages and quotes she puts up
Everything and everyone
Except her husband or romance with him
Unless occasionally there is nobody else!
She is past 62, and he past 68! !
