Attended a meeting at the airport
Discussing tax - ho hum - what fun - yeah, right
At times the discussion became quite fraught
And telling lies just increases the plight
Of those already at fault. But in spite
Of this, there were some laughs too! Headed back
Home, changed, ate sandwiches, but didn’t quite
Manage the soup (tomato). Then made tracks
For Vantage Quay, helping carry P’s bags
Down to my parked car, then drove to Oxford
Where she’s now starting her penultimate
Term there on her four-year French course. She lacks
Her early enthusiasm; a sort
Of weariness has turned day into night
