2362 - Piano 40

A much-needed coffee as I type this
Not much going on tonight - I have to save
My finances and all my energies
Because the holiday's close now. I have
Tonight to relax, tomorrow to shove
Things into a bag, passport, boarding card
A few clothes, new woolly hat, some warm gloves
Early Sunday, John and me climb aboard
A jet to Malaga. Marquis de Sade
Is my new book, collection of stories
Just finished Solzhenitsyn's, of the brave
Wars in Soviet days. Pearl's no longer bored -
The keys have arrived to her happiness
At last, a new piano, which she'll love!

(Pearl's my older daughter, who lives in London, and after about 3 years without a piano, she has now got one at last!)
