A love in verse

I feel my life blessed by your love 

I sit here in a radiant sun

Reminded of you, warmth above,

All round, with yours within made one.


And from a train, the Thames, the trees,

Appearing perfect in their grace

Share their lovely power to please

With the heaven of your face.


And even when I play my part

And hear (I hope!) the laughter swell

I tell the audience in my heart

“That laughter is for her as well”

Old Friends

Seagulls- you see them all your life

And hear them- that cacophony!

Far inland even on Parliament Hill

Third Person Singular

I lift iced whisky mixed with lemonade

To lips I love, watch cigarette smoke

Caress the evening light...
