A love in verse

Tasmania

The days would have been rainier

The dark sky never clear

If you’d gone to Tasmania

And sadly I’d stayed here

In the wrong hemisphere


I might have died quite young one day

Empty, lost and blue

But been reborn far far away

A silly kangaroo 

And hopped right up to you


And you’d have looked at me, said “streuth  – 

An ugly brute, sport, that’s the truth!”

No You

All the fine fire sun sends down.

The leaving green, the heaving sea, the air 

Cool as a dream of snow in Africa...

Money

Just now I strode the road, wondering where

Happiness lies. Does happiness lie?

Is so much of that for which we care...
