Friday 24th February
   

Two o’clock this morning

I was suddenly awoken

Thought I heard voices

The sentences, broken.

  

Thought it was the neighbours

Talking in the street

Wish they could be quiet

And beat a hasty retreat.

  

Struggling out of bed

Drowsy, not quite with it

Lights and sounds downstairs

Television was on transmit.

  

I found Adele singing 

Setting fire to the rain

I had a little chuckle

And turned it off again.

  

I know I’d switched it off

Before I went to bed

So who was the cheeky monkey

Who turned it back on instead?

  

Was that you my darling?

Playing a trick on us

Turning on the television

Causing a bit of fuss.

  

No other explanation

Just you making your mark

Getting me up at night

To go stumbling in the dark.

  

Sweetheart Angel

Fly high Starman

Love you forever
