Len Gasun Poet Footle

Victims of Love

He felt
     in love

     So deep
 at first

She’s much
          older

          Twenty
  years gap

  Lived in
          a home

        Eight years
of joy

Nine years
         later

       Met his
young girl

 He went
         with her

         Wife ran
  after

He sang 
          for her

         “ Victims
Of Love”
