A love in verse

I don’t want to disturb you but

Nor do I wish to lie

And say I’m happy watching grey welsh

Clouds crawl by


(You’re kneeling in the garden in

That blue robe over black

Smiling welcome – oh, I wish that

I were back)


The Welsh skies weeping water, grey

As melancholia’s clothes

Mourn such separation is

Where such love grows


(Terracotta pots and leaves of

Technicolor green

And eyes as blue as no eyes I

Have ever seen)


You’re out by day, by evening I

And many nights apart

No wonder eyes less blue than yours

Often smart


Yet still you smile and still I love

And when we’re home we kiss – 

Oh love, so many, poorer far

Do not have this

The Answer to it All

This is the secret of the sphinx 

Allie loves Pete so the whole world turns

All woman can mean from mother to minx 

Mafeking Avenue

A woman who’s been through the world

And travelled the length of life and seen

And suffered, loved, enjoyed and been...
