In the middle of love

 

in the middle of love

in the middle of life

in the middle of London

what am I to do?

I could do a fuck-lot worse

than being

stuck

in

the middle

with you

 

We are in London for a dear friend’s wedding … Prompt:  Because we’re halfway through NaPoWriMo/GloPoWriMo today, I’d like to challenge you to write a poem that reflects on the nature of being in the middle of something. The poem could be about being on a journey and stopping for a break, or the gap between something half-done and all-done.

  1. I love the line at the end of The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel: that it will be alright in the end, and if it’s not alright, it’s not the end. I know this is not always true but it’s a comforting thought, to be surrounded by time, with ticks on the clock yet ahead. Lovely poem, and bravo for reaching the halfway point in your challenge. xxx
