| Poems
|
| Don’t sit by river
|
| Aren’t there to be picked up by poets who pass
|
| To find them on bank
|
| And I’m
|
| Not built to deliver
|
| When stepping stone love in need
|
| Of a bridge or a plank
|
| Youth
|
| The stream so much wider
|
| Thought you could slow down the flow
|
| If you drank and you drank
|
| Middle age
|
| Still unable to find her
|
| The words on the stone that you skimmed
|
| So heavy it sank
|
| The ripple
|
| Hesitation creates
|
| The unposted poem with message
|
| So clear yet so blank
|
| Love will come
|
| Not to he who just waits
|
| For mouthing from bank side seems safer
|
| Than living in tank
|
| Thoughs
|
| We understand were preserved
|
| Rotted and quickly moved on
|
| To a less cluttered bed
|
| Rust
|
| Somethoughts never deserved
|
| But treated no different to ones
|
| You kept in your head
|
| Couldn’t master me a classical piece
|
| My brain’s well oiled buts its never been greased
|
| Popular but not fighting for seats
|
| Pays the rent but never the lease
|
| Never classed as a work of art
|
| Unlikely with the slowest of starts
|
| Good progress if he ever tok part
|
| Schooldays when you live by your heart
|
| Those
|
| Strong and able to survive
|
| And so at the expense
|
| Of fiction and art
|
| Dissolve
|
| Unnoticed to sea
|
| As time eats the evidence left
|
| That we even took part
|
| Poems
|
| Don’t sit by river |
