And I love you this way

And I love you this way

And I love you that

I love you on the causeway

I love you on the flat


I go to you in my dreams

I go wearing my hat

I go to you with full resolve

Once more to play the neat straight bat


I am here and now

Wondering where you are at

I have seen one fatted cow

Walking slowly as you plat


I listen to the Australian man

His CD came in the morning as I sat

Oh lord how I loved and ran

Into the future for a longer chat

I am almost at the end

I am almost at the end

Of this small notebook

A book which I have lost

Oh so so many times


Just as I left or lost

At least three relationships

Somewhere where, like now

I was busy doing something else


The future is unknown

Will I meet another

Is that a part of my journey

Who am I to know that


I write, but perhaps I ought

To draw or paint

Yes, at least one big canvas

As someone once said I should

High and low

High and low

Nowhere to go

Also no place to stay


But, put a face on

One on one

Is not the end at all


Don’t fall for the curious

Or the jealously insane

Reframe the positions


Take risk endowed decisions

Rearrange where you can

Exchange jealousy for trust


Take belief from rust

Wake up to the sunrise

Take a last look at the moon

Back in Café Rizzotti

Back in Café Rizzotti

For Americano (black)

And carrot cake (with cream)


A day when I feel inclined

To spend freely

Though no way can I afford to


But it’s been my way hasn't it

For the whole of this life

Way too late to change now


It sure was sumptuous

As where you, or

So my memory tells me

Fresh berry drink

Fresh berry drink

For lunch

Sat in the car

In the petrol station

Car park

Listening to Radio 5 live

Management skills

And latest news

Including Jim Ratcliffe’s

Purchase

Of twenty-five percent

Of Manchester United
