Well the week is over,
What a week it has been!
A long drive back from our break,
Our break into relaxation by the sea
Where all was done for us
In a place I give my highest accolade,
We will be back!
The following day another drive
To be with my daughter,
As she was honoured,
Honoured with her Masters Degree
For which she worked hard,
And thoroughly deserved.
This long day took it out of me,
Still recovering from the travel of the day before,
I am not used to it,
After all I am retired and should be relaxing.
But no, then came another day,
Another long drive to play croquet,
A tournament where I played six matches
And won three of them,
But I was still so worn out.
And then came yesterday
Where I did nothing,
Nothing but rest,
Preparing for today
For another croquet match.
Playing for my team
Hoping to win once again.
Throughout all these times though
She has been with me,
The love of my life has been there,
Our love growing stronger each moment,
Even in those times when I was shattered,
She was there,
As she always will be,
And as I will be,
For her.
