Jan Allison Poet Limerick

Notes About The Poem

To the Poet Who Broke My Heart Dw

We were ‘married’ on poetry soup
I kept my hubby right in the loop
I still rue the day
That you went away
I need to dry my tears and regroup


Loved your humour right from the start
I miss you with all of my heart
Want you to come back
Get you in the sack*
Then they’ll never tear us apart!



* In case you are wondering … Darren and I are simply amazing friends and this is a cheeky line from one of the last mails he sent me in October.
I miss you my lovely friend
