Harry Horsman

Master Poet - This has been how I have been addressing,
Harry Horsman - who has been, to the verse world, a blessing;
Depth, decorum, delightfulness, and dovish dynamism,
Shines and reflects on his personality like a prism...!

‘A Voice In The Wilderness’, ‘Phobia’, ‘The Old Oak Tree’,
‘Rainbow Ride’, ‘Eyes’, ‘Scars Left Behind’, and ‘You May Not Agree’...
Horsman's works have, images and imageries in plenty,
Figures of speech of all kinds, in him, are cognoscenti...!

In 'An Agendaless Age', or 'In So Many Ways’,
His genuineness, like the summer sun, does always blaze;
In 'Jesus Christ' he sings delightfully of the savior,
In his love for the poor, 'The Gravedigger' finds favor...!

'Death Is Not The End’ - he said, I do not think death has won,
In snatching him off from this world, no great work he has done;
Horsman dwells in the blissful presence of angels and saints,
Physically and psychically, he’s free of constraints...!!!

Congratulations on your win. Love your line, "'Death Is Not The End’ - he said, I do not think death has won," He is in a much better place. We will one day be with him. Death did not win. Have a blessed day.....................

I too chose "The Old Oak Tree" as part of my tribute. Harry Horsman's poems are warm in his unique style and are touching to the soul. He was a soulful poet. I will miss him, RIP Harry Horsman. Wonderful tribute, Christuraj.

Chris, you have probed deep into the poems of harry horseman.I concur with you in calling harry- Master Poet. Besides being a great poet, he has been a true gentleman and a man down to earth. Though he has been sick for long, his death was sudden and he will be greatly missed.Beautful tribute, dear friend!
