Click here to hear the poet read his words:


love story

sometimes a love story
is just that and no more
a love story
with no end

for me it was love
at first sight
although I never believed
in such a thing
until I saw the smile
in your eyes

you took a little longer
but I watched
with patience
as you grew to love me too

I was in no hurry
I knew already
that there would never be
anyone else
that you were not
my first love
but you would certainly
be my last

time has passed
and we still spend our lives
hand in hand
eye to eye
heart to heart
and every time we are apart
I miss you so much
it hurts

sometimes a love story
is just that and no more
a love story
with no end

A Scot who has discovered peace in a small town he calls Medville on the Côte Vermeille, C.E. Ayr has spent a large part of his life in the West of Scotland and a large part elsewhere. His first job was selling programmes at his local football club and he has since tried 73 other career paths, the longest being in IT, with varying degrees of success. He is somewhat nomadic, fairly irresponsible and, according to his darling daughter, a bit random. So, nobody’s perfect.
