Even the Table talks back at me ~ as I dine alone
The cracked plate ~ the upturned empty glass
The stale bread ~ the crossed knife & fork
The stained board ~ no fancy tablecloth or napkins
Empty chairs and an air of gloom and doom
Maybe it's time I got married & started a FAMILY !
Thanks for visiting ~ Comments welcome ~ Love to all BRIAN XOX

Family takes the staleness out of life. Safe journey.
THANKS "A" I'll have to give that some thought ! BRIAN
Brian, a sad poem for the lonely hearts club. As I read it, I felt it was also a tongue-in-cheek poem. By the time you return to poetry land, you will have an abundance of marriage proposals so you will not be eating alone in the near future. I enjoyed reading your poem. ~ Sonia
THANKS SS ~ Yes it is a bit tongue in cheek ~ I'll letyou know when I've checked my in-box ~ BRIAN
