After dinner


from the ABC set Poems

I am planning
an after dinner party
behind the door
when curtains close

eyes have seen
tomorrow inside
with no remorse
everything finished

I was planning
to wash the dishes
spring clean
and cut the grass..

but ears have heard
truthful words
hints and advice
a simple warning

I am planning
my colourful spring
and summertime
my after dinner party.
