Napowrimo #7: love, funny side up

Prompt for Day 7
Write and capture humorous incidents related to love in a 5-line love poem called a tanka. Think about avoiding capitalization and punctuation because a tanka needn’t be like a sentence.


Tete-a-Tete
sitting knee to knee
just two old people alone
youth and beauty gone
the bed warm with memories
life now sore joints and wrinkles

"life now high school with wrinkles" - great last line!
