Saying No (Brilliant things about Blighty 3)

When we mean no
We say no.
If we don’t know
We say so.

If you don’t know
You Smile
So I don’t know
When you mean no.

If you mean no
your head’s in motion
forgive us but
We take the notion
That you know
But you don’t know
or just mean no

…And we’re confused

  1. Loving these last few poems - I particularly remember the inability to say 'no' from my short trip to India. You were again much missed at our birthday gathering last night. We hosted a house concert by a musician you may remember called Dan Reed. He played and sang brilliantly but all his tales of buddhist monasteries made me think of you and how much you would have had to talk about. See you very soon, Cat x
