England Poems

Waxing Nostalgic

     A middling pudding on the table
        flies hover in the livery stable 

    Mud-covered boots ascend to garrets 
        frowzy days London inherits     

    Dickensian scenes

Bows And Arrows

If Harold had spied with his little eye
the arrow flying his way
at the Battle of Hastings in 1066
the English may have won the day
but the French bastard William the Norman
prevailed and won the upper hand
to conquer the last Anglo-Saxon king
of this green and pleasant land
when King Henry V led his army of archers from Wales
at

Chain Letters as Desire

Instant the command 
As decisions 
In labouring the fields
A civil war of family's avoiding 
Yet the enactments mimic
As bond as surety 
In financing burdens
One wishes not to carry
Carriage as stable
Nightingales lost fables
Ferry in twist 
Smirking gentle and smits

To the good Friday of Ireland

Awen Drifts Through the Bard

This Cosmos knows all must escape the war.
The sky beckons peace for the Bard's journey,
Hoping there will be joy forevermore.
Music, dance, poetry--art is beauty!

Raise a cheer for nature's forest bounty.
Let's gather memories that are gleeful!
The green woodlands breathe with vitality
And gift to us a rocky pocketful!

Awen drifts through every breath of nature,
Kindling the mind with

Goodbye Terence Stamp

He was very talented and he has died at the age of 87.
After living for many years, he died and went to Heaven.
His best performance was that of 'General Zod'.
Stamp entered the Pearly Gates and he met God.
He gave another great performance in Episode 1 of 'Star Wars'.
His skill as an actor is something that

David Graham

Just one year ago, he was alive and walking around.
But he passed away and he's buried in the ground.
He provided the voices of Daleks on the classic Doctor Who.
When people say he was a talented actor, it's certainly true.
When his life came to an end, it was a shame.
He was British and David Graham was

Green Mystery Cosmos

This mystic Druid
Soul searcher with windswept eyes
Beckons. Come away.

Traffic

We drive on the left
park in the driveway
and walk on the pavement
over here in the good old U.K.
They drive on the right
and on the parkway
also the pavement
over there in the U.S. of A.
It could be confusing to motorist
and pedestrian alike,
so where should we go
when riding a bike?

Armistice

NOVEMBER 2022

Rightly so, the poppies flood
Early in the winter sky
Merrily stood in field, and this
Existence of mine has passed by
Maybe they'd watch us contend
But are authorities ever sober?
Early now, in Winter's sky
Realise how they owed her

Unwillingly ignorant to the loss, they'll be
Scorching their retinas, a veil of red

Green And Pleasant Land

If the UK is as PC
as some would have us perceive
(tho' Britons never never never shall be slaves
Boadicea's turning in her grave)
it's incorrect on two counts
would you believe
and the US we should see
as between '52 and '22
it was a Queendom
not a Kingdom
and either way
that's sexist so
to speak more accurately
accordingly it should be
the United Sovereignty

Home, Home of the Brains - Lyric

  ~ To the Melody of "Home on the Range" ~

       Home, Home of the Brains
       Where Scrabble is endlessly played
          Where seldom is heard 
       

85 years of oppression

they kill 1200 in rage
you kill 200.000 for what
to show you are just

Welsh Winter : englyn

     weathering Wales in bleak winter is hard
 
though starred sheep remain sleek

taverns roaring fires a feat
 
making Celtic maidens sweet
