Shade

Jabberwocky

Oh lover heart of stone

How did I come here all alone

To sit beneath this spreading tree

Without you here beloved by me.

You are somewhere with another

Being the sunshine in his summer

The babbling water in his brook

And I sit here in shade forsook.

 

 

Except your talk is all inane

And like to drive a man insane

And summer sun is well and fine

But winter follows close behind

Then the freeze and long dark nights

The lying and the constant fights.

Im better here with this fat book

And pity he who your heart took.

    Woah wow bravo!! The first stanza sings soulfully on the jilted love but the niece stanza shows relief and the better off feeling, I think I would say sth like that if I leave my hit tempered hubby ever. Kudos for this awesome rhyming poem.
