Undeclared - a Valentines Day Ode

Undeclared
A valentine’s day ode


For all my bashful valentines
Who love me but can’t share it
Today’s a very special day
On which they can declare it

Was I just forgetful
Did I drink too much gin
I meant to take the door off
So the sacks could be thrown in

But as I sit here patient
And the hours go so fast
The postman must be rushing
Cos the bugger drove on past

I spose he felt quite jealous
But now he’ll be ecstatic
That all of my admirer’s cards
Are hidden in his attic

But thankfully I got one card
It’s stood there on that shelf
No need to trust the postman
I ‘sent’ that one myself
