This week’s prompt comes from one of the West’s most esteemed poets, William Stafford:
“Think of something you said. Now write what you wish you had said.”
A very short silly one in a busy week
Wot I said
I said ‘I do’ a couple of times
and one of them I regret.
Next time round I’ll probably say ‘no’,
if I don’t forget.
What a shame you didn’t have my this weeks haiku to hand earlier, as it might have altered your answers! LOL

Yes – it was never meant to be there, as the photograph is too good to mess about with. Don Taylor, who took it, is an OU online friend of mine who I actually met, with his lovely wife, in Paris. We sat on the edge of a fountain in the Tuileries and dabbled our feet in July-warm water.
