Familial Smiles



Just thinking on it, and not in a quandary; or’s 
that like avoiding th’ deficit of not having those 
charms readily on hand, geeze; its a hard one, 
they make a rationalisation an iconic insight & 
normally its a lifetime's take to get those grips 
unless they are the evolutionary part making it 
happen; well we’ll see all too soon; so yep the 
packing’s complete and the 15th’s all but here 

Then there’s the resettling in London, not that 
you’ve had problems in the past; it’s a bit like - 
ho Sweden’s only two & a 1/4 hours away, an 
afternoon excursion; seems I’m th’ one listing 
in a sea of distances consumed by smiles we 
have agreeably taken for granted; I’ll miss it - 

All that remains is agreeing its my duty t’ get 
into gear to reclaim the familial brilliance sea 
and half a World’s distance will deny me …
