A love in verse

For every joy there comes a pain;

To know you’s joy – and your demise?

The thrilling kiss, the soul that cries…

Let’s fasten seat belts,  face it plain:


That you might leave me years to mope

Before I come, meet you in heaven…

Do we BELIEVE? There’s other leaven

To the loaf – the leaven’s Hope


Belief I force upon my mind – 

It roots not well, but hope’s the thing

To joy and pain the bridge I bring.

Belief Is harsh but hope is kind. 

I hope for God. I hope for you. 

Each means always. Hope is true.

Growing Old

You feel beleaguered when you’re old

For what’s to come? Fuck all, you’d say

The last few sunsets slip away…

Embrace-moi

Whether for sex or comfort,

Oh, cuddle me! of course I’m like a child,

Look at me, big sixty...
