BE INSPIRED

Love poem for the day

DATE 23 July 2012

We have just been sent the Picador Book of Love Poems, and after viewing a selection of them we thought we would share one that made us smile.
Bloody Men
by Wendy Cope 

Bloody men are like bloody buses-
You wait for about a year
And as soon as one approaches your stop
Two or three others appear.
You look at them flashing their indicators,
Offering you a ride.
You're trying to read the destinations,
You haven't much time to decide.
If you make a mistake, there is no turning back.
Jump off, and you'll stand there and gaze
While the cars and the taxis and lorries go by
And the minutes, the hours, the days.
