An Ode to the one and only master of Rom Com ! No better day than Valentine’s Day to attempt  a tribute to P.G.Wodehouse 🙂

Oh for that wonderful Age Of Romance

The thought of which puts me in a trance

Moonlit nights laced  with mystical powers

Romancing the inmates of Totleigh Towers

 

Madeline enraptured by God’s Daisy Chain

Oblivious of Gussie’s love for Newt’s insane

Bertie Wooster dithering in constant perplexity

Unable to fathom human nature in its complexity

There’s Blandings castle in all its splendour

The Earl Lord Emsworth tremulous and tender

Pottering around with boyish delight n glee

Mesmerized by The Empress his queen bee

Aunt Dahlia’s guests have a certain weakness

For Anatole’s creations concocted with finesse

 

 While Bertie’s betrothal perpetually “on and off”

In gentlemanly response his hat he does  doff

But for the services of Jeeves his protector

Bertie could well be hauled up by an inspector

 

But eventually all is well in this comedy of errors

There is love n romance no lurking terrors

As St Valentine smiles benignly over one n all

They can only rise to the occasion never fall
