The unagreeable lovers

A comedy of sorts.

My love, my life, 

it is the golden sun I say, 

as we bask in its ray, 

of this glorious sunny day, 

'tis the sun, I say.

Nay, my love, my life, 

it is the silver moon I say, 

with night flowers in bloom, 

the night gloom, 

'tis the moon, I say.

My love, my life, 

it is day I say, 

enjoy it we may, 

too soon to lay, 

'tis the day, I say. 

Nay, my love, my life, 

it is night I say, 

inside the inn there is a fight, 

and on is the street lamp light, 

'tis the night, I say. 

My love, my life, 

it is the West I say, 

It is the best and the way, 

the astonishing sunset, 

'tis the West, I say. 

Nay, my love, my life, 

it is the East I say, 

sunrises and birds feast, 

awakening for both Man and beast, 

'tis the East, I say. 

My love, my life, 

it is the North I say,

moving forth is the way, 

up the hill there is a court, 

'tis the North, I say. 

Nay, my love, my life, 

it is the South I say, 

where we must go about, 

wipe that smirk out of your mouth, 

'tis the South, I say. 

My love, my life, 

it is Spring I say, 

we can hear the chant of the jay, 

and flowers enchant the day, 

'tis Spring, I say. 

Nay, my love, my life, 

it is Autumn I say, 

fallen dry leaves at the bottom, 

better to wear wool or cotton, 

'tis Autumn, I say. 

My love, my life, 

it is the Summer I say, 

the heat is never a goner, 

light fills the window in that corner, 

'tis the Summer, I say. 

Nay, my love, my life, 

it is the Winter I say, 

snow is a daily painter, 

lady Winter is coming, wait for her, 

'tis the Winter, I say. 

My love, my life, 

it is left I say, 

are you daf? 

Let us prepare for a theft, 

'tis left, I say. 

Nay, my love, my life, 

it is right I say, 

patrols are guarding the night, 

many ready for a fight,

'tis right, I say. 

My love, my life, 

it is up I say, 

there I saw a golden cup, 

and the window is not shut, 

'tis up, I say. 

Nay, my love, my life, 

it is down I say, 

I saw a beautiful silk gown, 

now, don't give me that frown, 

'tis down, I say. 

My love, my life, 

it is fast I say, 

may we remember the past, 

and all things made not to last,

'tis fast, I say. 

Nay, my love, my life, 

it is slow I say, 

memories take time to go, 

children and old weep so, 

'tis slow, I say. 

My love, my life, 

it is the entrance I say, 

let us not leave it to chance,

maybe there we can boost our finance, 

'tis the entrance, I say. 

Nay, my love, my life, 

it is the exit I say, 

get up, let us not sit, 

maybe there is a key to fit, 

'tis the exit, I say. 

My love, my life, 

it is the start I say, 

come, let us not be part, 

we can follow that cart, 

'tis the start, I say. 

Nay, my love, my life, 

it is the end I say, 

stop, let us not pretend, 

let our limbs rest and mend, 

I say, 'tis the end. 

Author's Note

It is supposed to be silly. Thank you for all visits and reviews. 😃

I know you worked really hard on this and it shows, it's truly an enjoyable read. I'm glad that it could more than live up to the expectations from our brief discussions of what it would/could be. I do agree with the majority of readers that it can be read more seriously, but I do see the silly side of it too. It easily can be read as kind of a satire on the conversation of two people in love. Like the 'you hang up first', 'no you hang up first' but in a much more poetic and insightful way.

[The_Ancient_Rock]

Wow, thank you Green.
Yes, I wanted it to have a silly side.
I would really like if it could create laughter.
It is both the first time I try to write a play and a comedy. I don't know if I am very good at comedies, or plays matter that fact. So it was a nice chalenge for me. Thank you so much for your review and kind words. Your words really mean a lot to me.
I am so happy you enjoyed this work.
Please do visit often.
Take good care. 😃

silly? yes I can see that in the we agree to disagree - but also much here that is a rhythm of friendship and or love - obvious these two enjoy the back and forth banter and both make good argument as to why they are correct in their choice. Definitely not The Honeymooners or even Lucy and Ricky - Maybe a bit more Gabel and Lombard - All in all and enjoyable read -carl

[The_Ancient_Rock]

Carl, that was an inspired review, thank you so much.
Truth be spoken I have no idea of Gabel and Lombard, or the others, matter that fact. Will need to check on that. Thank you so much for your visit good friend.
Your wise words are always appreciated.
It makes me very happy you enjoyed this work.
Thank you again and take good care.

Wow! A very entertaining write finely penned. Two people not in agreement about anything. If one says the sky is blue, the other says it is black. Reading it for the third time, alarm bells ring in my mind for the couple who can't agree on anything. The constant battle made me worry about what kind of future was in store for them when the novelty of their loving relationship took a nose-dive! A very humorous, amusing write finely penned. I feel you enjoyed writing it and I enjoyed reading it very much! Thank you for sharing it, dear A.R.

[The_Ancient_Rock]

Marie, you always write the best reviews.
Thank you so much, dear friend.
I am so glad you enjoyed this piece.
Yes, that is why it is called the unagreeable lovers lol.
They just can't never agree. Oh, this could go on and on... But I felt like bringing it to an end.
Thank you so much for your review and kind words.
Your thoughts are deeply appreciated.
Take good care, Marie.

[Marie]

Your very kind words humble me greatly, dear A.R. You are most welcome always. Wishing you a very nice, relaxing evening. Keep safe and well, A.R. 🌹🌹🌹

An epic tale here of lovers who don’t agree on anything. The poem comes across as entertaining and light hearted and yet there are danger signs here for those who have no common ground at all. It was a fun read and I enjoyed it.

Chris

[The_Ancient_Rock]

Thank you so much Chris. That is a wonderful review.
Yes it is a bit of a fun play, I've only decided turn them into thiefs at nearly the end. Anyway, makes me so glad you enjoyed reading my work. You all give me strength to carry on. Thank you so much. Your visit is always welcome. Take good care, friend.

[Chris Shaw]

And you too. Have a great weekend:)

Ok... So I had to change a thing and make a few small corrections.
Think it looks better now.
Hope you can enjoy.
Thank you.

[John Sullivan]

I dunno, seems pretty... meaningful. I really like this one. It's still early here, so I'm gonna revisit this one once I've woken up a bit. Nicely done

[The_Ancient_Rock]

Ok John, awesome. Thank you so much for your visit and your review. I just finished polishing it a bit more.
This should be the final result.
I am so glad you enjoyed this play.
Take good care. 😃

Sometimes people are opposite ls and they manage quite well. May differ in opinion a lot but they make it work. I love the bantering in this poem

[The_Ancient_Rock]

Awesome, I just finished it.
Hope you come and see it all.
Thank you so much for your review and kind words.
