A tomato & spelt soup
seasoned fresh herbs with
grated padano cheese
toasted sesame
muselli molasses
with skimmed milk
Slim!...

I eat it when feeling depressed.
Maybe it's just a coincidence
that desserts spelt backwards is stressed....

A song of songs
Of a love so strong,
A serenade of love-
The inexpressible,now heard
Spelt out ,in passion's word.

My named is used for either sex,
   Simply spelt or more complex.
Given to me to make it last,
   A family name from the past.

acceptance might be taken sadly
but
Why should accuracy matter
writing talking of delusion
thereby compounding a fault...

It is the most famed
Left wanting to be felt 
Seldom well spelt 
Often blamed 
Forever in tangles 
tamed

Most spoken and
Least understood 

It is to Love ......

If only I understood what you weren’t saying

If only I read the statements your body spelt

If only you took my hands

If only you had me stay

If only you drew me to your racing heart

If only...

i shook
my white
beard cloud
ice fell out

my heart
frozen
for years
frozen tears

but the blue
sky sunrise
smiles
to melt

raining
spelt
to grow
waiting

float
myself
into
spring...

Don't be sad, coz sad spelt backwards is das
And das ain't good, know what I mean, lasses and lads
Try happy instead
A PB and jelly spread
Stay positive, set your world on the right path...

Unlike your Mr Asimov
Whom I hear likes Rachmaninoff
  
  My limericks are clean
  the point clear to be seen

Perhaps he drinks too much Smirnoff!



Spelling used is how the man spelt his name when writing English....

Just a Beleif

There spelt some say so badly
acceptance might be taken sadly

Or maybe not 

Why should accuracy of the matter matter
writing and talking of the delusion delusional 
compounding the fault like a fool

Just a Belief...

For they were akin to stars
Brightest in their quadrant
Lovers in every regard
Bound to be apart,
it was their curse, their struggle, their fight.
For they knew, if broken from their yoke,  which in an eternity so rare
Spelt destruction, calamity, night....

Limerick : Once a rich Janitress rode on a broom

Once a rich Janitress rode on a broom
From cheek to jowl her looks spelt dire doom
She thought she owned the world
And the world owed her gold
So she chewed gold and lost gums and bloom.

In this day and time
Some of the older people wants
To be young again
Dressing, and acting like
Teens and young adults
Then there's the young people
Who's trying to be older
Dressing and acting like
Older adults, even putting
Up their age, be who you are
Don't fall into entrapments!...

I could write a masterpiece
but i just can't find the words
so instead
is tea

Playing Checker with word
Abs solve the absurd
West turns to stew
Drip ping on my shoo
makeasentence save some time
never correctly spelt ryhme
Turned north and stepped upon a thorn
Born to be wrnog...

Nothing
can be its own explanation

Nothing
can leave itself

Nothing
can give dimension to time

Nothing
unsaid is spelt

Nothing
is nothing till something becomes

Nothing
a word unatoned 

Nothing
that last page of unwritten rhyme

Nothing
—a temptress unknown

I tried to write in rhyme
Of nights I’ve spent awake
Weaning my infant love
Humming a silent lullaby

I took my ball point pen
And jotted down your name
In the space of an hour and a half
begging the letters to come

Every letter I wrote spelt love
And every pause, a prayer
That those who love
Should rhyme in love....

In my friends old farm house out of town
Messing around with a Ouija board, a frown 
A spirit claimed it was ten years old
And was killed on the property, sold
He came to say his last goodbye,
Knock was spelt on the board, a sigh
Three raps on the window pane
A hand running down my mane.

A mother`s lullaby 

O, my little angel, come and clasp on to my hands
there is no one in the whole wide world who loves
 you more than me.
If happy sunshine and lives joy had been one word
they would have spelt your name.
O, my little angel, the world is so big much bigger 
then you think someone has to hold your hands,
 and guide you until adulthood....

fates to see another
do you now there is a bug called the bah that hums
not reely spelt really wnrog
the presents following the now
passed ghosts
futures we haven't got
God there is less of us
less of everyone
and more lay dead
the last 2 lines are reworks
of the first and last of A Christnas Carol
but concerning covid just a thought
And a last happy new year...

Listen to poem:

Irrational Numbers
David J Walker

There is nothing so opaque 
as the past

one day or one million cast 
into a single ambiguous folder 

	    	older than the
order of the Universe
smaller than the molecule 

you cannot see but
you seem to remember
on some primal level

within its remains 
the arcane names 
                 spelt 
in irrational numbers...
