HANNAH VERSARY

so sorry for neglecting ya!
been working every hour buddha sends
to finish the album
to tie up various loose ends...
eight years ago today
mrs f and i exchanged our vows
made promises
to love
to honour
and eat cherries with each other
we ain't done a bad job i guess
miami vice came to poole harbour that day
a blistering hot july afternoon
sunglasses and waistcoats on the quay
everyone larking around and posing in front of the yachts
of course at that time
little hannah e was not even a proverbial glint
in her daddy's eye
h and her mum are going to the zoo tomorrow
'd'you think you might see a dinosaur there?'
i ask h before she goes to bed
'i hope so' she replies straight-faced
