A love in verse

Colours

The world’s a place of cups of tea

Flowers on tables, strange summer skies

(Changing and changing) and mainly for me

Colours that come from Alison’s eyes

Not just the blue; if your eyes are not

No colours emerge, the world is monochrome

But raise your lids and make hope hot

And brightness makes the world its home

And creatures dull and wan like me

Live in a kaleidoscope for free.

The Love We Share

The kids weren’t there; the sun walled up with cloud

What wan Sunday noon we walked from church into!

Our walls seemed wet...

Waterloo to Brentford

Waterloo to Brentford and back 

To an horizon of writhing track

Rain on blue trains laying dust...
