'Old Memories, Renewed Love' Poem by Michael Micmac Mccrory

‘Old memories; renewed love'

Well I'll be!
Mary Hennessy, ‘That was'
How the hell are you?
Girl you have changed
Two children, both girls
What a lovely surprise
Well I'll be!

Your eyes still sparkle
Yes' oh yes it is me
Yes I got married too
Two children, both boys
It's nice to see you again
I can't believe it's you

How are your family
Partner dead; mine too
Boys all grown, yours also
On my own again; what you as well
A movie, dinner, a drink or two
Mary Hennessy; forty years on

In the chapel of love
The priest asks
Do you take this man
You say you do, me too
Our love will be more beautiful
The second time around

Well I'll be…………………
