the bedspread

opportunity came
a-knocking
i rush to open 
the door
trip over my
wildest dreams
fall headlong
to the floor

in a mist, eerie
yet to clear
a voice, softly 
in my head
opportunity, it's
fool's gold!
better prone lying
than wakeful dead 
 
rip, a lifetime 
in bed spent
sleeping beauty too
serenely bedspread
opportunity came
a-knocking
handsome prince
or kiss of death?

The Wimbledon Dream

federer is in action
centre court spellbound
he serves and he volleys 
oooh-aaah goes the crowd
the fun has just begun
the feast is yet to come
strawberries and cream
the wimbledon fan's dream
 
federer is in motion
rolex stops to watch
a leap here, a swoosh there
unique glow awash
delight tho' the tennis is
the feast is yet to come 
strawberries and cream
the wimbledon fan's dream

federer is a point away
cup within his reach
royals swoon in their box
others shriek and screech
wimbledone, end of dream  
answer to my prayer
the strawberry's blonde
and from the creamy layer
