Thanks to Dan , who's poem got my writing mind to thinking. This pure fixation , this poem/story is the result.


I CAME HOME TO FIND THEE IN OUR GARDAN

I came home early , with out warning

The battery of me mobile goon flat , so I did worn

I were coming home to you

It were a lovely summers day , aye it were that

I put me key in the lock of our front dore

Let me self in , your cent gently carest my senses

welcomed me home

I called out too you , '' hi lass''

Got no cheery , '' hi your self , Archibald ''

When you were a bit angry , with me you'd

Call me by me fall personal

I recond you'd be a bit angry wear me

As I'd not called thee first , lass

I thought thee were out ,lass

So I went ter kitchen , make a brew

Make a pot fer when theed get back

From where theed goon

I put the kettle on the gas ring

Porde a glass of , water , lass, it were

Such a worm summers day

I looked out the window

To see , thee , my Abergel , my lass

Only I calld you Abergel , all others calld

Thee , Abergel , you were and always will , be

Speshall to me , so I called you Abergel

I remember you through the years saying to

People you we met '' call me Abby '' ''only Archy

Calls me Abergel '' theed say wear a smile

Defieing them to call you Abegel , none

Realisde just , only thee and me know

Just why

I saw you the back guardan , picking

Flower and blossom petals

To create your own perfume

How many people had commented thee's

Perfume , asking what it were called , where

Theed go it from , ''I fore get'' you always replied

With your defiering smile of yours

Then you got up from your knees , basket full

Oh the smile, how many times has that samile

Got us throug so much over the years a samile

So worm , so strong , that got us through so much

Over the years

It were and is the smiling green eyes , that made

Life not so bad

Even wen we so broke , we'd tare sofer ,

Arm cheairs apart looking fore any loose copers

Waiting fore that rainy day, and Abbygel , lass

Weave had a few over the years , aye we did that

Then you strech your arms , your basket full of petals

You danse , you sing , your so happy , and so am I

As I watch you , you with out a care nor worry no

More , we'd had I unfair share of those

As I watch you lass , my cheeks are worm

Absently , I put a finger there

To fin d them wet , dame , would you beleve it

I were crying , not sobbing , just crying

As my love fore you shed a few tears of my love fore thee

My lass , my so , so sweet Abbygel

How you danced , that sweet summers afternoon , lass

I brecks the spell , '' hi , Abbygel'' '' I'm home lass''

You stop your danceing and singing '' Archy?'' That

You lad?'' , '' who else would it be , lass''

Thees , fancey man?''' ,''nay'' , '' he came not

five minuets , after , thee , went out , this morning!''

'' You silly bugger '' says thee

'' You could have given me a call , Archy , pet''

''Battery's flat'' ,'' made a brew, love''

''Rite , lad'' ,'' I'll be right in''

So we sat and drank our tea.
