Sometimes writing poems for the person you love can seem weird to anyone who stumbles across them. And that’s what I enjoy about poetry.

Here’s one for my wife.

A Home I Imagined On TV

I climb inside your heart and find
George Clarke shouting, “An amazing space!”

Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen is in the corner explaining
there is just no way he can improve the decor.

So I sit on the soft, L-shaped sofa and listen
to Charlie Dimmock and Tommy Walsh sharing
poems about the water feature of your ventricles.

Carol Smillie has never smiled so much.
Alan Titchmarsh has never has so little to do.

Handy Andy has gone out for a pint
and Nick Knowles is working
on a new song called ‘SOS Answered’.
