Mischief

Mischief M My soulmate is a miracle woman I In Conception and in contraception S She’s born three children one on the coil C Condom leakage on another and H Her first born on the oral pill I In terms of luck that takes some beating E Entirely normal just hormones on overdrive F Failure at first then a blessing in disguise F For my own natural fatherhood after E Endless trying my ex got injections I In reward my eldest daughter H Her next ‘litter’ triplets from the womb C Careless maybe another son despite the S Sheer odds to conceive without help I In science we may trust one way or other M My explanation though comes through The UNIVERSE as HIGHER POWERS H Heaven at Christmas though plenty of gift wrap P I Images of congestion when all need the loo O G Girls have more problems but we manage somehow W H Harvest of children and kid’s crop divine E E Enter the mischief they can all produce ever after R R Roguish cohabitation frolicsome happiness S 02nd October 2018 Actually ‘written’ between 1992 and 2004 as this is a true story This is my adaptation of the acrostic poetry form. Four Stanzas: traditional acrostic reverse acrostic intermezzo (subtitle) front and end acrostic the acrostic stanzas with double letter emphasis
