For Fun

She says I sulk a lot
What a terrible thing to say 
I would blow my top but I'd better not
I just won't talk to her today.

She claims I'm going goo goo
and I need to see a shrink 
Just because when she was on the loo
I had a pee in the kitchen sink.

She says sometimes I am giddy 
and I really get on her wick 
My underpants are skiddy 
and my smelly socks make her sick .

She says we are not playing hide and seek 
and our love making has gone to pot
I must be happy to get it once a week 
and I'm to stop saying , I'm coming ready or not .

On the days when we are kissing
We both wear a lovely smile
We realise what we've been missing 
and I know she makes my life worthwhile.


I've been reading a lot of fantastic love poems about love that burns brightly after forty years and so on , 
This is my hopefully funny version of that.

I think it looks like one that a guy married that long actually would have written. GOOD job at it. Hurry and get married while you still have 40 years to go. heehee.
