Another Saturday
Circling aimlessly
like a broken ship
down the isles of plenty.
Dancing the choreography of the damned
to the latest use-by date beats.
The pretty check-out girl routinely smiles
and asks if she can help.
Heart quickens as usual
then I remember
it’s the slammer for me if I showed her how.
Maybe next week
Shel, can't wait to hear what happens next week. I hope you let us know. Good piece of writing. Ian
That is just brilliantly hilarious. Next time why not give her this poem on a bit of a paper along with the £20? t x
Shel...what would life be without the quickened heart and women to fall in love with for a few seconds. Liked this one. Take care, John
Wonderful Shel.... simply wonderful.... The Co-op was never like that! Keep posting lover boy! Roger.
Great piece of writing, loved the humour and the lightness of the poem. Love Ernestine XXX
Absolutely love this poem Shel! I imagine you would make her day if you did tell her how! ! (Hey - why not try it for Valentine's Day? ?) HG: -) xx
