A better half when turned bitter

For long who’d been my better half
Has now become my bitter half--
Bitter, my autumns sing
Of fantasies of spring…
To bull has blown a benign calf
Who feels (or feigns) she’s tired 
Ever since I retired,
To smirk has turned a vibrant laugh.

Note: She has, I would like to feel, nothing against my poetic journey as such, but that my poems fetch not a penny.
