Straight and proper
tall and broad
full of wisdom
some nonsense
and great good humour
within there is Mr Darcy
also hope and despair
Bedroom companion
of many years
I love you so
some think you wooden
and you’re
getting fatter
but I don’t care

This poem was written in response to the May Poetry Challenge over at Fake Flamenco
The challenge is to write a free verse poem, up to 14 lines about a mystery person, place or thing in English or Spanish, deadline: Sunday 5/08, noon CST.
So, what have I written about??????
The Cheesesellers Wife 
The cheese seller??? I imagine getting access to amazing cheese all the time would cause a companion to gain weight…
Great work! I had a lot of fun thinking about it 😄

Great poem. I thought it was a dresser until Mr. Darcy. Well done. Thanks for participating in the challenge!
