A love in verse

We’re made for love and we’ve retained

That childhood dream despite the care

And hard frustrations that have rained

On us – like children unaware

Wond’ring how little we have gained

From a world that brings despair


What the innocent child’s eye sees

We’ve taught our own kids, sweet joys given;

Happy days at home that please

Wondrous times on farms in Devon

Except ye become as one of these 

Ye shall not enter the kingdom of Heaven

Riches

All still and dim the house has been

Shadowed against the furious sun

And I have missed my dearest one...

Absence

The leaves hang low now with the weight of summer,

Swallow you up along the sun-flecked path

Only your legs I see...
