Abbey Poems - Poems about Abbey

Things bloom more beautiful when breaking down. The nave now ploughs through foams of flowering trees, a frozen caravel. Kissed by the breeze, the river surface suddenly seems to frown exquisitely. The apse’s jaunty crown of weeds above one (sightless) eye would please romantic poets. What was once a friese lies strewn about, a shaley shanty-town. We love whatever withers, atrophies. To see...

It looks to me like the iconic photo was shot on a Sunday Behind an abbey that was soundless with loud prayers The traffic was more human than mechanical On the broad, asphalted spine of a skinned, dead zebra Where four men created a useful, eye-catching scene With their stern military march of youthful legs, Coming together, yet drifting solemnly apart, Each...

Why did the chicken cross Abbey Road? Because it was there, but which came first? Obviously, not the egg, as it has no legs. The first chicken to cross the road, feeling peckish, not one to throw in the towel, when told, 'Walk, don't run a fowl,' and, faster than a speeding pullet, or so it is said, was one giant leap for poultry, one small step for...

Dawn to dusk Redeems our chant And Monks gather to thee In Chorus we sing Hallelujah power and glory be Trumpets the Angels Oh so heavenly We drink of love the life of his blood We thirst for peace on Earth Amongst the tabernacle Echoes the masonary Our prayer of past in my heart born are scriptures...

Stone, kissed by salt, sighs on the isle, A Gothic spine, against the tide's guile — eight centuries, etched in weathered stone, A whispered prayer, a lonely throne. Granite fingers, reaching for the sky, Embrace the sun, as shadows fly. As a timeless grace, the abbey stands as A sanctuary in this watery space. The sea, a restless, murmuring friend, Whispers tales, to...

Hustle: Is not for him, Satisfying Success, But value on others impact Struggling! His look previews mind, Tightening ways to a new start... Who won't work to live, But earn money while age knocks- The old door of timing noon. His struggle with time, Has life's check to balance sky: Airy wings to fly! Greater You I pray, boss! Behind all obstacles, That wish to lock up happiness' Pure thrill. Forget the toughness, Though...

Not often you find such a landslide of conkers but my father saw them glossy brown among the hedgehog casing. So we foraged with the rove beetle, earthworm, mite, lifting box-loads of mahogany jewels into the back of the Riley. Going home I was ready to stage my strung shells for the big fight in the playground. Time was short and I was in a hurry to catch all the fun...

Horn Hiaku Triplet of Downton Abbey Between you and me Her knockers could hardly see What a way to be. She seemed to extreme With no features that redeem Part of a bad dream.
