The Aerial by Wendy Cope

Wendy CopeThe Aerial Annotated
The aerial on this radio broke
A long, long time ago,
When you were just a name to me -
Someone I didn’t know.
The man before the man before
Had not yet set his cap
The day a clumsy gesture caused
That slender rod to snap.
Love came along. Love came along.
Then you. And now it’s ended.
Tomorrow I shall tidy up
And get the radio mended.
