A love in verse

Rose Arrives

From depth of bed to springing step

(The stick discarded on the way)

From enforced tiredness to pep

My Rose arises bright as day

Into the morning’s joy she moves

Setting the very sun alight

Her proud arising proves:


That human heroes, born again 

Will never fade away

They smash through obstacles and then

Like Allie, seize the day!

In void cloudless afternoons

With dust on kerbs, trees weary with the sun

I thought of things, things I might do...

In Bath

Though you cannot see my face

Let this note for now replace

That far from lovely feature...
