A love in verse

The Best Way Out

We shall fly, head to the south

Where things are hot and nature’s deep

Where love and desire never sleep

And rioja’s gorgeous in the mouth


We’ll tread red earth where worship’s dark

And blood is sport, history thick

Where what’s smooth they never pick

And passion, people, love are stark


I’ll be in this place with you

We’ll seek another truth than bland

That poets and lovers understand

May we penetrate them too

And may the best way out be through.

One Fine Hand

I remember pigeons and sparrows

On the green beneath Edinburgh Castle

I remember smoking a secret joint...

Evening Reverie

Your garden – I can hardly see

Under this glooming summer – dusk sky

The stalwart gnomes peer out at me...
