A love in verse

Brentford Autumns

2000-11-04
Performed by

The magic of many Brentford autumns

Works on me when I see great leaves

Seem more to glow with life than fade

When their violent red make bushes blaze


Saturday afternoons and jumble sales

And visiting libraries as evening came

Then home to tea after going mad in the park 

And maybe Famous Five read by the bed


She walks now tall around the corner,

Our first. Our younger’s far afield

Yet mellow joys do not decline

We have an evening – candles, cats and wine

And I love you so and more than ever.

An Autumn Walk

Who’s my best companion for

An autumn walk by the canal?

Contented with? Couldn’t be more!...

Sonnet: We Argue

We Argue – harmony has some bum notes

Uninterrupted bliss is not our scene

My poems suggest our love has nothing mean...
