Best Covent Poems

Then Margarita gave her father mind,
for she was very happy being home.
Hence three years placed in a covent confined
where she's had little use of brush and comb.
Removed from places she loved most to roam,
the fields and plains of fine San Luis Ore.
For loving Yankee, sealed...

The year1762 a tale of murder or mystery they boast
 A teenage girl, drunken parish clerk, and maybe even a ghost
About hordes of aristocrats and wealthy men assembling
 Crowds rivalling Covent Garden, Theatres were now descending

To a house near St Paul’s on a road named...

Back in 1887, The Convent Of Our Lady was built,
It was part of a school for girls run by grey nuns;
1971- demolish, sad that tilt,
Art gallery wanted it and offered big sums.

It was part of a school for girls- run by grey nuns,
Reconstructed in...

In Dickensian time 
Upon sunset hour
Overshadowing Thames
Is London Tower
Blackened cobble streets
Shimmer in the rain
Big Ben at Westminster
Chimes an eight bells refrain

At Euston Station
A passenger alights
On Platform 3
And enters the caff
for a nice cup of tea

At the local tavern
Behind steamy windows
The opportunists sit
Gleaning local gossip
Ever watchful...

Coocoo chacoo!

Well, you’d think a blithering idiot 
got hold of my governor controls……..
You’d think Watt had never invented a throttle for my mouth
Of course, no one ever has, and doubts exists anyone could
ever muzzle me with a full head of righteous steam ready to blow.

The Marshland
In the middle of the fen where the soil is full of rotting foliage, 
roots of tree from the time the land was a forest, 
a dam where ducks swim and as is the way of ducks noisy in 
their chatter with each other,...

is everyone from Barking  Barking mad?
Does everyone In Lambeth do the Lambeth walk?
Is Leicester Square In Leicester?
Is The Elephant And Castle a place where they hide Elephants?
Is Oxford Street in Oxford?
And Paddington a bear?
Highgate is there a Lowgate?
Does Batman live in Clapham?
Does the Old...

An auld Covent 
watches over its town
by shedding  grey  husk all over
wondering to be once more found

on the antipodes - across
bygone graveyard 
not here neither lost
stubbornly lasts
between the stalks of overgrown grass 

from the shadows of Bremen's wings
amidst the dreams of Osiris
Mr. James...

Scratching Fanny in Cock Lane, a true tale

 A teenage girl, a drunken parish clerk, and maybe even a ghost

London’s districts

Cricklewood, Greenford, and Edgware are nice districts of London; I lived there
Amazing moments, times, and emotions all of them. Wembley is my residence
Lovely nights, rainbow times, Wembley, and other districts gave me a great life

Lovely daily moods, amazing night desires, and colors, people, ladies,...

KELP SEAWORTHY.....WE KNOW ONE THING: HE VALUES HIS TIME AS CHAMPION
HIS CROWN IS COVENT, IT'S THE MEANS OF HIS WEALTH
AND IT IS THE REASON HE THRIVES. HE WORKS HARD TO BE A TOP TALENTED SUPERSTAR.
HE WORKS HARD TO BE THE MEDIA DARLING, THE FANS CHEER...

We were always a little ash white,
the girls always a bit cleaner;
the soap always green carbolic
the toilet paper always slick and hard to scrunch,
six year old bottoms always a little sore.

The nuns who ran these grey bricked barracks
called it the: Covent of 'Saint Hilda's Sacred...

Zealous untiring repentance

Fleshed out as poetic confessional.

Profligacy prevailed pricking psyche
precipitating pandemonium.

I wrought havoc courtesy aegis
of paramours picadillos, yours truly did relish
crooning, clowning, and cavorting 
around at Piccadilly Circus
located in Regent Street, Shaftesbury Avenue
Piccadilly, Covent Street and Haymarket.

Fast forward into the present
meaning Christmas day 2024.

Impossible mission...

They set the standards high
expecting alot from the

to represent the covent title.

awhile talking
often bragging
It was clear a couple
of the guys were agitated or intimidated

My Valentine has a ticket to ride;
So London town beware!
New wings will carry her up north; 
A pass to Leicester Square.
Let Big Ben toll and chime aloud;
St James's Park should prepare;
The hustle of the Covent calls;
For her to stop and stare.
Our Festival will a singing...
