by Robert (Bob) Moore © 2015

I have a lovely quilt, that my wife stitched for me
she said ‘twill keep your legs warm, while you’re watching TV
don’t know how old she thinks I am, I’m only seventy three
but she said  “it will be good for you, especially your sore knee”
                             
She made me a cushion too, so comfy I would be
I think she has the notion I just sit and watch TV
it has a chess motif on it, cause I like chess you see
a Castle and a King, they could be just the key
                             
I use the cushion every day, to play chess, and watch TV
but I don’t use the quilt much, it gets too hot for me
so on the back of the chair, that’s where it will be 
and will stay there till I need it, maybe when I’m ninety three

I am an outsider...yet a post-read satisfaction fills my mind for quite some time...Wordsworth's words flash across....poetry is emotion collected in tranquility...
