For years we have been meeting,
Meeting once a month,
Playing bridge and chatting,
Chatting of many things,
The five of us playing bridge.
We have our normal break
Where cakes and wine are served,
And we chat even more.
I told my friends about my new love,
The new love in my life,
They were all so pleased.
Then came the question,
They all needed to know.
So Alan asked that question,
The most important question of all.
“Does she play croquet?”
My answer was prompt and meaningful,
“She does now!”
