Punters

Some take  a punt

On a horse.

Others follow a different course.

But they also play

In their hunt

For the perfect young Philly.

 

 

All punters are silly

And all pay

For horses lose races

And a Philly’s bought laces

Soon fade away.

The Perils of Writing

When guilty men

Dip their pen

Into black ink,

Later they may regret

And by burning the whole

Hope to conceal their soul.

The wise use ink,

But others regret

The damnable internet!

Gangster

When I met a person named Dan

Who is an extremely tough young man,

And he demanded my money,

I said to him, “sunny,

You are fat. and then I ran!”.

A Rhyme of Her First Time

A rhyme of her first time.

She stayed for roughly an hour.

And after his bliss

Took a shower.

Then the door closed

On nondescript clothes.

 

 

She didn’t kiss  him goodbye

And left no perfume

In his bedroom.

Just her towel

On his chair

To prove she’d been there.

My new audiobook – Kevin Morris reading from More Poetic Meanderings

I am in the process of recording my book ‘More Poetic Meanderings.’ You can listen to Part 1 here  and Part 2 here.

This is an ongoing project and further extracts will appear here in due course.

‘More Poetic Meanderings’ is also available from Amazon in Kindle and Paperback.

 

I Touch the Gravestone

I touch the gravestone

Warm from the afternoon sun.

I have come

Here alone,

Many a time

My mind

Full of rhyme.

But under the cold gravestone

There is neither sun

Nor rhyme.

There Once Was a Poet Named Moat

There once was a poet named Moat

Who traveled the seas with a goat.

That beast wrote verse

Which grew steadily worse.

But it wrote better poetry than Moat!

When I Met a Lap Dancer

When I met a beautiful young lap dancer

Who asked me to go and romance her,

I said to her, “Lin,

There can be no sin!

But then again, my name it is Chancer!”.

As the Rain Fell

As the rain fell

I thought of our love

Of rain.

You and I

Share the same sky.

But does love

Hide inside the rain.
