Examination

I woke, a dream I’d had, me a student, an exam! in sleepy haze, said to my wife, “turn over I’ll begin,” 1. the hard question, family, money and future; wrote notes upon her feet, intending to return, the question to complete 2. the easiest by far, I answered right away; and on her resting lips I wrote, “yes, always, every day.”

Wish I could dream like that- I'll have to stop eating cheese before bedtime. A lovely write, and a wonderful pomander of devotion for your good lady to wear. Nice work, Peter. Regards, Viv
