It was suggested in Barcelona at the SPR Conference that I am a romantic and I don't think this was a compliment. It stung because there was some truth in it and searching Wikipedia only helped a bit; finding out that my favourite poet Wordsworth was see as a Romantic poet. And yes I am Romantic about my Welsh blood; my mysticism; the art of counselling and so on. So it called for a poem which owes a bit to Christopher Logue' 1963 Poem 'I will vote Labour'!
Am I a Romantic?
Am I a romantic?
If believing in love, peace and understanding
Then I am a romantic
If liking the Pet Shop Boys
Then I am a romantic
If dreaming of equality of all people
Then I am a romantic
If believing Aston Villa can ever again win the Championship
Then I am a romantic
If believing you love me
Then I am a romantic
If following my inner Light
Then I am a romantic
Best to all,
Bill on bike enjoying the sunshine
