Wayne and Tracey - a Sonnet Duet

Would you compare me to a summer’s day?
     No chance, you look more like a wet week-end
     But we’ve been married 30 years, this May
     And all that time, you drove me round the bend

     We’ve had three kids, of whom we’re more than proud
     I’ll give you that, they’ve all turned out not bad
     And you are never shy to say aloud
     I know - that you’re the best I’ve ever had 

     But we both know I was your first and last
     And I knew that you’d loved and lost before
     But now our love has settled, strong and fast
     I guess that’s true, I’m sorry I’m a bore

     You’re my bore, Wayne – and we’ll both be OK
     As long as we survive Valentine’s Day!

The Sandringham Sonnet

The Queen released a long and weary sigh
Her cherished grandson, Harry, had jumped ship
He clearly did not understand just why
His fellow Royals are joined at the hip

‘Your destiny, dear boy, is to remain’
said Charles, his father, clearly under stress
‘within the Royal firm - let me explain
If you go now, we’ll all be in a mess’

‘Dear Mummy has had just about enough
With uncle Andrew’s ventures overseas
Now you and Meghan tell us to get stuffed
And bring the institution to it’s knees

But Harry’s mind had drifted far away
The Sussex Brand – or Duchy of L.A?
