On A Chilly Winter’s Evening
On a chilly winter’s night
The song of a bird
I heard
As he sang to me
From a churchyard tree.
Such delight,
And poignancy.
But that was in me.
Stopped
My clock has stopped.
It’s chime
Has ceased.
One day, eternal peace
Shal be forever, mine
And thine.

Day and night
The red light
Does seductively glow,
And men go
In search of love, And lust.
One may find, for a while,
Solace in a girl’s painted smile.
Though some see dust
Behind their lover’s eyes.
But few are wise.
Silver Fox
An elderly gentleman named Mr Box
Is known as the silver fox.
Whilst the young women say
My hair it is grey.
But I’m not rich like Box …
We Poets Should Stick Together

I glued myself to poet Heather!
Sword-Play
A girl from Morocco
Of 20 or so.
A reward
For sword-play.
Then she is away.
Though not to Morocco
My Violin

Likes to play on my violin.
The pianist, Miss White
Brings such sweet delight.
And my neighbours complain of sin!
