Chapter (7) LOVE'S LOST ON ME

A Chapter by MAD ENGLISHMAN

LOVE'S LOST ON ME.


 

I can't write lovey dovey,

Although she asks me to,

I didn't buy her flowers,

To show my love was true.

 

I bought a new food mixer,

Thought that would be more use.

Apparently I got wrong,

I really thought she'd blow a fuse.

 

I can't write lovey dovey,

I've tried it doesn't work.

She looked at it and laughed out loud,

Then just called me a berk.

 

I go to work and do my job,

And bring her gifts of meat.

I'd like to think I'm not a slob,

Then drunk, fall in the street.


I can't write lovey dovey,

so my wife she went away.

I couldn't understand it,

she got a fridge on Christmas day.


So now I sit here all alone,

and think about my life.

And all the useful kitchen stuff,

I used to by my wife.

 

I didn't write lovey dovey,

and now those days are gone.

Damn sure I won't be starting now,

I just turned sixty one.


I'm sixty three really but it didn't fit.

LOL! Romance is (or should be) in the intent.

Well, if she doesn't appreciate a good mixer, she's not trying to make a home! Of course, it depends on the timing for the gift. I suppose I'd be miffed if my husband gave me a mixer for Valentine's day. But, I'm hoping for new cookware for my anniversary (the 21st of this month) and for Christmas.

I think a food mixer is a lovely gift, and meat is so expensive these days each pork chop is like a valentine. I don't write love poetry myself, but you'll find a lot of it on this site.

I wish my boyfriend would buy me a food mixer. Great poem though, I had a lot of fun reading it.

Thanks Rach. It's when we're older we think a mixer is a great idea. If your boyfriend buys you flow.. read more

That's what the Internet is for. You don't have to have interaction with a clerk.
It made me laugh, I think the food mixer is a great gift.
