The Orange........


Have I told you I love oranges? I also love Wendy Cope,imagine that,one of my favorite contemporary poets wrote a poem about my favorite fruit! Outstanding Ms Cope! simply outstanding!

The Orange.

At lunchtime I bought a huge orange
The size of it made us all laugh.
I peeled it and shared it with Robert and Dave
They got quarters and I had half.

And that orange,it made me so happy
As ordinary things often do.
just lately,The shopping.A walk in the park.
This is peace and contentment.It is new.

The rest of the day was quite easy.
I did all the jobs on my list.
And enjoyed them and had some time over.
I love you.I'm glad I exist.

Wendy Cope.
