It's always nice to know I haven't forgotten .



Hey! Happy Birthday Babe

Sometimes I don’t remember your Birthday, and most times Mother’s Day too,
Valentine’s and Easter don’t always happen and New Years we sleep through ,

There’s no such thing as a drive to Vegas, Doctor calls is all we make,
Sometimes the kids come over, and that’s a pleasant break.

Friends we see quite often, but even they are few.
TV doesn’t interest us but Music we listen to,

We don’t share a lot together, our hobbies aren’t the same,
Me I’m into writing and you are into Games,

Yes it’s not a busy lifestyle and we enjoy our solitude,
I’m sure there’s others like us with our same attitude,

But we do have something special, that we’ll always share
And in today’s mixed up living , It’s becoming very rare,

It’s the love that’s there between us that will always grow.
And life can’t get much better, At least we both think so.

Love, Your Ol’Man

That was so sweet of you. But it reminded me of my recent forgetting of my partner's birthday that really hurt me when she had to tell me. It was more than just another ordinary writing working day that seems to run into one another seven days a week.

You reveal a lot of yourself/herself in this short little poem. More than a great long bio would. We share some of the same situation--her doing her thing and me doing mine. Except that I'm the one into games (solitaire) and one of my addictions is TV dramas. They do one thing for me--tell me how not to write a story. ;-)

Sounds like a perfect relationship to me. One reason why you are so happy and willing to share your humor.

There's something to be said for two old fashioned love birds, and that shines through every line of this delightful poem. What you have is an achievement in this day and age. John
