Ode to Mary …

Mary Poole, oh Mary Poole…

A perfectly penned gift on your wedding day

From an introverted shy guy with a crooked smile at school

Declared his quirky love for you in his unconventional little way

No vow comes near to those promises made

A deepness of desire for his bride and queen

To sing and declare throughout each decade

In the shape of reflections, flowers or a dream

To be the comfort of home,

to make whole, fun and young

A desire to love you with so much passion

String together these words and the heart is sung 

With such feelings that can’t be starved or rationed

Pairing together in life, sharing kisses and wine

Professing thoughts with a poetic flair 

Intimately entwined in one another’s mind

Immune from the world in which you share 

Your compatibility makes the chemistry spark 

When two worlds in the playground collide

Starts an adventurous journey in life together 

With your quirky LOVE by your side

The repeating words on the radio

I will always love you … 

I will always you 

With coated lips  that smear your cup 

They Whisper …. 

‘Fly me to the moon’!!
