A love in verse

Pianissimo

Creepily, the piano starts to play 

Downstairs – who plays? It can’t be her

She just began to rest! Oo-er!

A ghost or something? Wait though… hey!

It has that sweet, that easy flow,

That exquisite touch… and so

It must be her! You just can’t miss,

(Despite the occasional blip) that caress

Of fortunate keys… the fingers bless…

Music like a dreaming kiss

Come from a long-inspired Rose

Whom my heart knows

Who is my love, my life, makes me complete

On any star, on any shore, on any street.

Those Two

Crudely pinned, the walls all wear

Dozens of paintings; on the floor

In stripy dress a silent bear...

One Fine Hand

I remember pigeons and sparrows

On the green beneath Edinburgh Castle

I remember smoking a secret joint...
