A love in verse

Mem’ries

Remember that time we sat out

With coffee, doing lists?

Filled with contentment and without

A care? Gone in the mists

Of Time, that time, it’s further than the moon

Hold on – what? It was just this afternoon!


Another occasion in the garden too

You do the beds, I’m mowing the lawn

Marvelling again at how the pansies grew

And flowers glorious as the dawn

Will it occur again one day? 

You bet- tomorrow, that’s Sunday


My love, my love, how dare we suffer sorrow

With such mem’ries of today and tomorrow?

The World Must Yield

You say back to me, at the window, 

Fruitlessly breathing out the fag

Whose smoke blew back into the room...

Our Girls Come to Gillingham

The thoughts that scourge me in the night

Cannot defer the living skies

Of dawn and morning’s hopeful light...
