Ferries Poems

Rock Gods

...It’s fifty years since people said
Look… on the tele… Hitler
And maybe you just sat there stunned 
Like something big had bit ya

There, on the keyboard, Ronald Mael
His brother, Russ, the sing...

Sailing on the Bay, a Living Poem

...
On the bay the wind is scurrying
along its flock of waves,
with white crests honey combed, 
to flip over their edges,
on blue foreheads.

The bow of the yacht slices 
through the waves drive...

Butterfly's Wander

...Once upon a time
the old songs were new
On prairies unplanted
invaders were few 

Where rivers rolled onward
no ferries or towns
All riverboat minstrels
new ages impound

The time of the se...

Day trip to no where

...2025.03.10
Victoria Labour public holiday.

I was playing the piano at the M Central,
For hours, every thing was fine,
Until I headed up and saw a line.
I then realised, many other people
Also...

Shadow

...Look at sky above you and tell me what you see
Listen to the sounds around you and carved out
The giant wave that is beating on heightened rocks
And scrolling around the sea with open guts
The cl...

Autumn Is On Her Way

...I hear the honking of geese overhead:
there is a chill lingering in the air.
And I see scarlet and crimson flames spread
across canopies of green, everywhere.

Night keeps getting longer...

Loop

...Along the South Banks,
I sat staring at the river
Shimmering in city lights,
Ferries gliding by,
Occasional airplanes in the sunset sky
With a half-baked moon,
All reflections are converging in...

The part of me That Never Lived

...It is with tears in my eyes that I write these verses of hope, it is with tears in my eyes I climb the mountain of joy  and stands on top of it and look at the distance that I am coming from; it is a...

SHOWING OFF ON THE SPRINGs ZEPHYR-CREST

...
     
     Dawn’s dewdrops form a breathtaking lake
for the sunrise fairy who joys in a swim.
     Far from shore, where problems well,
tears rise as fog, ferries in daffodil sun.

For th...

Dunkirk

...
 ~ When allies falter from his Blitzkrieg force,
the blood of British sons infuse the sand.
They pray their brothers front the Channel’s course
for they have failed to gain the upper hand.
And ...

Then and Now

...After college graduation,
Oh, so many years ago,
I traveled throughout Europe,
All my youthful seeds to sow.

With my friends, I took a ferry
To a popular Greek isle
Which had very few hotels,...

Dangerous Glory

...This Aphrodite rose
slowly unfurls
pink ombre balms
of sun-kissed 
springfalls, 
as the luminous 
lake of tears
cascade in 
exotic wreaths 
of honey-soaked
velvety sepals, 
there succu...

Battle for the Atlantic II

...With lone intent, all freedom it will wrest
if obstinance you let these wolves deny.
As tonnage sinks beneath the torrid crest
your struggles for survival magnify.
Each flailing ship that ferries...

God's Grace

...I am lost without God's grace.
As cocaine makes drug addicts happy, 
As war satisfies the appetite of an army,
As meta-sensualism quenches the burnings of a nymphomaniac,
God's grace is the codei...

Exile

...Exiled from my distant homeland,
Where the days seemed bright,
Nights seemed peaceful and nice,
Where I longed for freedom and dignified life.

With dictators and militia in charge,
Where corru...
