It was a long winter day,
as he entered his home,
he trugged in heavily,
plopped down on the foam.
heaved a sigh of relief,
a breath of life,
awaiting his dinner,
to greet his wife.
he smiled meekly,
twisted his lips,
to try to appear jolly,
as he reached for his chips.
he staged a hello,
threw a warm, loving face,
asked how her day was,
fell into embrace.
As his wife looked on,
she gazed at his expression,
watched it fall back into place,
left a lasting impression.
He staged it for her,
she felt so dear,
he was utterly exhausted,
but happy he’d appeared.
FAKE IT FOR THOSE YOU LOVE!
