COMPARING
Here I sit in the UK,
Comparing you to a summer’s day –
You have a face like thunder,
You have highs and lows,
You fluctuate
Like the drifting snows.
You’re cold as ice,
You’re mercurial, chronic,
You’ve got rainbow eyes
From gins and tonic.
You’re dense as fog,
You’re an ice-cold blast,
Hard to predict
Like the weather forecast.
You’re a tidal wave,
You’re sleet and hail,
And every notch
On the Richter scale.
You’re foggy and frosty,
You’re murky and misty
And I can’t recall
When you last kissed me.
As I compare you,
Think I’ve got you pinned,
And by the way,
You have terrible wind.
In time for Valentine's Day, a little book of laughs and a few tender moments.

The Cover
The Blurb
"Funny poems and silly stuff about love, Valentine's Day & beyond. I was trying to think of a snappy title for this little book. Last year, I published a Christmas amusement called Only Yules & Verses, a slight take on a famous television series title. So, I went back to the pun trough once again. It’s a quirky collection in need of a quirky title. There aren’t many drools in here nor nether-garments, knickers, nor swear words nor anything blatantly offensive – unless the word fart causes distress.
Most of this book tries to be funny. The last several pages are a little more thoughtful. I hope you enjoy the selection and share it with those you love."
