A love in verse

The same old questions – where to eat?

What shall I do from now till then?

Somewhere in England rise again

In a life that’s half complete,

Wandering from theatre to theatre – 

Which may be worse, which may be better.


Down Lichfield Street, the lights turned on

For Christmas glow against a sky

That’s dusty orange – a coloured sigh

For that late autumn sun just gone. 

It’s merry, lovely; shan’t complain

Or sing “I miss you” once again


Each sparkling light is just for you,

That fond rich autumn sky as well,

The blest bus, the bright shop tell

Those tales of which I’ve written a few!

Of lovers who, though kept apart,

Live together in one heart.

The Mystery of Light

The stars will come soon

Down to the earth they’ll dip

To study you – they’ll bring the moon...

Thanks to God

With Allie singing round the place

Gracing the stairs as I say my prayers

Letting the sun start from her face...
