We're poetic wraiths,
Poets' souls in motion, bards,
Brainiacs, our muse,
Singing around our planet,
Nature, Love's dreams, far beyond.....

Slept and slumbered under the quinine stains we wept,
On a poignant bard’s weary nib we slept.
Yearned we to spill  on to paper,
Him caged sore thoughts for later.
Weeping words we lay folded,
On table, heart moulded.
Sorrowed dirge lament,We repent,..................dissent

Poetry turns from the common man,
Turns on its arrogant heel,
Stalking away toward the cloistered academe.

Nothing is duller or deader than
Poets unable to feel
Love—or compassion, or dream the lofty dream.

Thus poetry turns from you, from me,
And talks to itself, indulgently,
And nobody hears. Quite understandably.

life it seems
is not without its irony
for the screaming bards 
of Mu Mu Land

.. on lounging chairs
.. on deep-piled rugs
.. just laying round
.. reciting verse

.. my bards were still
.. and known to all
.. in whispered words
.. as mild as mauve 

and when they showed me to the door
I could sense within 
creativeness 
the un-ravelling of their pain

Thanks bards fallen
For the inspiration given 
For the eyes are now opened
For in lines on paper inked,
Lessons were learned,insight was earned.

Thanks bards fallen
For in lines down written
Truth was spoken
Dreams were born.

Thanks bards fallen
For the many hearts mused.
In your lines and rhymes,
Emotions and feelings lucidly expressed,
Vividly felt.

Many a bard
Fly sky high
For because you flew.
And gates to a world new,
You opened.
