Her Gift - a short poem
He was secretly seen,
purchasing,
naughty but nice,
saucy and spice,
‘His and Hers’
Intimate apparel.
How thoughtful
how quaint,
how nostalgic,
wasn’t it great
he’d remembered the date.
An Anniversary gift to share,
But - beware…
The gift didn’t materialise,
only then did she realise,
only then did it occur,
they were bought for
Him and another Her.
Undeterred,
she booked a romantic cruise,
Just for Her and Him,
Blissfully aware of His
inability –
to swim.
