To her school sweetheart
She was religiously married
Was the child she carried
Proof of their nocturnal exploits?
The Neighbour’s, hubby, she also served
Despite her cautious infidelity
Respite she never had
The child was unsettling.
To the neighbour’s wife
She was without blemish
And their company a relish
Her secret’s well hidden.
Loads of tears and sorrow
Lingering memories of joy
A secret child, Roy
She left to her Darlings.
