'Love is'

'Yellow Sun Flowers and Roses in a Blue Vase' - August 29-2018 - Digital Media - George Roberts

'Love is' follows a hyperbolic curve 

One look

Many kisses

Nine proposals

Making children

Triumphs and disasters

Wiping finger marks off glass surfaces

Laughing when I fart in bed - even when it smells

Not telling me to go when I piss and miss in the lavatory

Being a Cordon Bleu cook, a 24-7 laundress and up for fun on rainy days

Not losing the plot when I adamantly refuse to wear my hearing aid for no real reason

Having to repeat yourself over and over again ad infinitum because I’m deaf or just not listening

Not killing me when I forget to move the clean washing from the radiator in the kitchen before cooking garlic

Doing labour intensive jobs I don’t like and pretend to be crap at so I can spend more time fannying about on computers
