Poetry - I still have two Sunday newspapers

- Written years ago, and submitted to a competition, but publication required payment and you can't take the cash out of a Yorkshireman ;-)



I still have two Sunday newspapers

I still have two Sunday newspapers
and it's Thursday!

Tranquility and a chance to read them
Have drifted away.

Education, entertainment, information
Lay unread,

As another day's drudgery inspires
Only thoughts of my bed.

My sister has made a fabric collage of her interpretation of the poem below as an unexpected Easter 2018 present. Thanks Sis!
