The Rhythm of Us
Romantic Sunday poem
Making coffee
Breakfast rituals
Seeded yoghurt
Prepared with care
The pills, to ward off
The demons
#
Lunch – meat and bits
Coleslaw, of course
Your smile
Laughter at jokes ridiculous
Your scent
Your presence
Larger than life
#
Steak served two ways
Your way, my way
The right way
You prefer well done
I prefer rare so very rare
#
We sit we talk
Sometimes we sit
Binge shows
Consume music
#
You bounce (rebounder)
While I watch
One Piece
Showers at the end
Socks at bedtime
To ward off chilblains
