Syd Poems

When we were kids, kids we were without no pain or fears,
we’d do the ‘devilish’ of things to impress our peers.
The biggest dare or bravest feat would for the pack be tried.
Lord knows now when I look back how no...Read More

Another Brick in the Wall

I went to St Peters School in Cambridge
The first time I ever heard Pink Floyd
Was at my friends house during lunch break
His name was Brendan 
And was kicked out of school for being disruptive
Because he used...Read More

Two years and a couple of weeks and I will be on the road again. Back from living right and ready to start living wrong. Ain't that a bitch. But I got a pocket full of money gotta last me...Read More

I remember Christopher Robin
When helping Pooh find honey
Was my biggest problem
I remember the blustery days
We trusted each other in every way

I remember When we helped Eeyore
Find his way home from the Sea shore
Everything was good
In the Hundred Acre Woods

I remember...Read More

Unknowingly unable again to ever feel
As I stand gazing at the gates of dawn
Arnold Lange in evening heels
Awkwardly walking across the lifeless lawn
The pipers playing softly in the rays of a new sunrise
Luring the horizon into interstellar overdrive
See the gnome,...Read More

I’d been out of work for quite some time and let me funds run low,
Of course this meant some favoured treats are first things that must go,
And for me favoured treat that meant the most, I degenerated into fear,
‘Cause if...Read More

Love is lost within the world
Anger flares in light of misconceptions
Sadness comes and sees its flag unfurled
Feeding itself on varying perceptions

This poem was written for my by another poet. I thought to finally share it. Check out Syd Floyd for...Read More

He's given me a pickle
with nary any tickle!
As in the shade I stood
[He wasn't very good!]

The apple that I shared
he gave to me unpared.
So I gave his snake a shake
to make him see the stakes.

Then the sky went BOOM
G-d came...Read More

Thoughtlessness 
of an fanciful mind
camouflaged to a layman's eye

a vision with an 
uptopian trance
mimicked by 
the madcap laughs

Shine on, 
Crazy Diamond...Read More

"My God, if I was just able
to pick just four for my table,
Lord who would it be,
Yes, surely nette,
and Syd for we’d want a fable!

Now, in short, that makes only two
I know, our wee nikko would do
she’s not shy or...Read More

As the breath fills our hallowed chest with life 
and heart beats upon drum of anch’ring bone
so prayerful meditation eases strife,
through dance and strum, we know, we’re not alone.
Our mantras swell, their sibilance alive…
with searching sounds we join here to...Read More

     “MESSAGE IN A BOTTLE”…....GIRL..…..SYD


Oft-times I gave my true love  flowers  -

Embodiment of  loveliness,

Well-shaped and  well-proportioned,

So pretty and so fresh,

So perfumed,  velvet

Soft,  and  filled with

Gaiety.


    Perfect...Read More

CUPBOARD    LOVE

Brown Tanya  Teddy  bear and Soft Syd the toy elk were bored
With  their white shirts and  pants coloured  kinda rust
Sitting  next to each other  for six months in the...Read More

SONNET   BY   SYD   SHAKESPEARE


Shall I compare a tragedy to a  comedy?
Tragic  art’s   more lovely and more temperate:
Rough minds do shake with laughing at   Nuts in May,
And  some...Read More

Punk !

Back then we knew what it was
T.V. screens were not our choice
But we sold ourselves
To a fashion
Said it was
Individualism
Just more colourful than the last one

First came the music
And then the love
But Punks were all disillusionment
Trying to change the world
With...Read More

I had to say good bye to my beloved kitty, Sydney.  Syd-Syd as I called her, loved 
to be held.  Her favorite spot was on my shoulder, as if I were burping a baby, 
she would sleep there...Read More
