A Great Ruler
You were an Afghan, Farid Khan by name,
A name less known to the world today.

Because your own step-mother plotted against you.
Now you were runaway-Khan!
You chose to be a knight-errant,
Soon became a...

Unfamiliar Christmas
Beauty of December
Cause weather is calm and cool
When good friends remember,
About vinyl from the spool.

When we were small back then,
Mother and her cookies
Six men wiser than a pen.
No sweets sold in market

Is There Still Hope
I beseech thee to
answer
Is there still
hope???
Forgetting their
vows of chaste they
become lecherous
Fighting for power,
they become
ambitous.
Their actions make
people shock
For they forget why
they put on the
cassock.
Respect for God, our
clergies no longer
have
But so greedy with
the things they
have.
They make not,
benedictions...

The Heligan Gardener
Today once more on this old seat
I mused amongst woodlands deplete
of leaves where Autumn acts the churl,
watched winter smoke’s caress unfurl
Like ghosts that rose to touch the sky,
spirits of men destined to die

Dead End
...inspired by 'Cul-De-Sac' by Allen Tate
The golden sheen had turned to rust,
the laughter to a pile of rags,
the joy to ghostly lamentations,
how the weighted second drags.
Blind and deaf to consecration,
weak the beatings of the heart,
