A love in verse

The Greatest Thing

The greatest thing is we are one

And with the fire of joy we glow

The worst thing – you’re unwell, must oh,

Be sadness to eclipse the sun

It seems contrasting lives we lead – 

One lifts the heart, one makes it bleed


And yet I feel, seen from afar,

We must light up the very earth

Around, so bright with joy and mirth

We shine on our good days; hurrah,

For every kiss we’ve ever shared

All loving vows we have declared!


For it is true – we in the sky

Would outshine stars – the sun defy!

Vain Summer Things

In void cloudless afternoons

With dust on kerbs, trees weary with the sun

I thought of things, things I might do...

New Year’s Day

Gulls weave against grey sky

Winter daylight starts to die

Tree lights wink: wind is cold...
