Absence

A tongue-in-cheek observation.


They thought it was better to live apart;

he in Rabat, she into the wild blue yonder,

because they both knew that absence

makes sweethearts’ heart grow fonder.

I always wonder if absence makes a heart grow fonder, what happens when they meet again, does the fondness subside? I imagine from your two sweethearts it must do. 🙂 Sue

Crazy poetry, Luigi Did you post this on the new ‘other’ place? Seems familiar. Great fun as ever.
