Yesterday
Confessed to my beautiful wife
of 24 years
That I am a poet
She had no idea
Was blown away
Told her how it came to be
And read her a few examples of my madness
It felt good to tell her
I was living a lie
Now she knows the real truth
From her 61 year old dog
I know, I know, 61?
It’s true
Young at heart, still got my mojo
But racing fast against the skyway
