Best Harrods Poems


What's It About For You, Then
What’s it about for them, then
Loneliness, poverty, pain
Bang of the bailiff at the door
Death in a ditch in the rain

What is it like for the Joneses
Bigger and better you think
Posh port and pigs in blankets
Sick in the kitchen sink

What’s it about for him, then
A clock,...

This poem covers the greatest story ever told
Greater than all the kings and all their gold
This story will bring about deep reflection
Starting with the Immaculate Conception
Of all the stories this is the greatest of all
A complex child born in a simple stall
Quickly the news covered...

A Visit To London
When first I saw London, it was in a book in the library,
But then I came to England, experiencing its history.

The Bridges over the river Thames, like sentinels over the city stand...
While the long Buildings of Parliament, lay beneath Big Ben's command.
The Palace Guard at...

Book: Radiant Verses: A Journey Through Inspiring Poetry



Across the River Thames
The mist in Regent Gardens air
awakes a single rosebud there.
Her scent drifts past Trafalgar Square -
England’s summer has begun.

The rising sun above the Thames
shines brighter than a crown of gems;
peeks through the panes of Buckingham
until the day is done.

Saint James Park invites the dawn
as sunbeams...

Premium Member London Lament
I had to sit through it all
the conversation that was inevitable
What they did
Where they went
What they saw...
My brother and his wife
On the their expensive trip to see Roger Federer in the flesh
My husband and daughter 
On a trip joining work with sightseeing
And then there was...

January  Two Perspectives

From his park bench bed
He hears bells chime in New Year.
Quiet desperation.

From her pavement tent
She peeps.  Harrods is open!
January sales!...

Do you know a teacher you think may be a cheater
If you shop at ‘Harrods’ are you considered posh
If your car breaks down, do you call the RAC
When you play pool or polo do you go round in a loop
If you prick your hand on...

Hey honey,will you be mine
I've got the cutest chat-up line;
What you see is what you get,
Fly with me by private jet !

Vacation by the sunny Med'.
My wealth has Wall street cred'
Play your cards with great care,
And perhaps some day we'll wed!

I'll wine and dine you...

For I'M a Londoner Now
Found my way round London like a boss 
Know the best way to Piccadilly and Kings Cross
For I'm a Londoner now 
Seen the sights Big Ben and the like 
Taken a cycle journey on a Boris bike 
For I'm a Londoner now 

I've been on...

Premium Member A Christmas Story
Teacher tried to teach his class that Christmas isn’t boring
Half the kids weren’t listening and one or two were snoring
He picked out little Lucy, she seemed the one most liable
He made her prove she’d listened to his lesson from the bible

Her little eyes were glistening,...

Purple-haired teens of large girth,
courageously saving the earth,
are staging big pours
in grocery stores;
they're milking for all that it’s worth!
