MY AFFAIR

Her name is Judy, and I have been seeing her for about three years,
My wife found out about her, but so far no tears.
Sometimes when I leave her, it with sorrow and remorse,
I tell myself that I should control my life more, perhaps take a different course.

But things have a way of sliding by, and we wind up on the same old road,
It just seems I never learn, and wind up burdned with the same worrysome load.
I saw this woman again today, things were as they always have been,
We sat close together, talked of personal things, as she did my taxes again.

Bill you are such a good writer.  You had me right up to the end.  I like this side of you friend.

William,

I took a look,
You set the hook,
Never thought to see,
How taxing your poem could be!

Great fun!  Dennis :^)
