Val

A Poem by Paul Bell

She was having a party
A divorce party
He wasn’t invited
They came prepared
Balloons, rozettes, banners
More people than were at the wedding
Val was very popular
He listened intently
Something about Val, his soulmate
The loud girl with the big heart
He would miss that
The music played on till dawn
He was waiting in the street for the taxi to arrive
She was saying goodbye to the final few
He caught her eye
Sounded like a great night
Yeah, you know me
So how does it feel to be a single woman
Don’t know yet
How long you away for
Three, four months
Gives a call when you get back, we’ll go for a drink
Yeah, that would be nice
Taxi’s here, be seeing you Val
Tony
Yeah
Love you
Love you too Val.

It sure is. You wonder why people do it several times.
interesting how some people get closer to each other when they split up.
