When a pretty young lady known as Lou
Said, “I will see you both at 2”,
My girlfriend Jane
Really did complain
As she has this thing for Miss Sue …!

Part 1 can be found here whilst Part 2 can be found here.
More Poetic Meanderings is also available in Paperback and Kindle on Amazon.
In my frayed old dressing gown I found
A broken hairband.
I know not where
I met her.
Names I forget.
But this broken hairband commands reflection and regret
For her and all those before.
And others, if there are more
Sometimes my belief
Is that grief
Conquers all.
Then I recall
The air
In late August
Carrying hay
And coming Autumn.
Such sweet air
Carries no despair.
Fantasies of twos and threes.
Hard bought kisses
From scheming young misses
Create an old rake’s blisses
Where girl’s perfume
Hangs on hands
In lonely rooms.
There was a young lady named Lou
Who was known for wearing 1 shoe.
When they asked her why
She’d point to the sky,
And say, “there flies my other shoe!”.
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.
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.
When a young man with a perm
Said, “truly you are a worthless worm!”.
I said to him, “Coker,
You’ve always been a joker!”,
As with shears I chopped that perm!
As I
Grow older, I
Doze more
In my armchair.
I wonder
When and Where
I will die.
