BATTLE OF WORDS



BATTLE OF WORDS


‘CHEATER’ she exclaimed
showing her hand now
testing  his reaction.
He pondered the word,
slightly miffed.

Stroking his chin,
he searched
for a fitting reply.
‘Go for it,’ he thought.
‘DIVORCE’ he responded .

Undaunted, she taunted him .
‘ Right,' she said -'ALIMONY'.
He blanched. Not again!
‘How do you do it?’

She grinned and leant
over to kiss his forehead.
‘Sheer skill, darling,

Great game, Scrabble.
Fifty pence please.’
