A love in verse

We Need a Lift

Nothing luminous everything drab, 

The streets are wet without the cheer of rain

The window plants, too weary to complain,

Droop drearily; a last attempt to grab

Their interest, then fade. We need a girlie dear

Dark hair, blue eyes, to sing a song maybe

To give out kisses and kind words to me,

Or just to be around. She’s far, I fear,

Return to us tomorrow; come not late,

And free us from our melancholic state.

Thanks for Bringing Me the Spring

Thank you for the daffodils 

Standing in their pewter vase

Pointing to heaven and the stars...

Daughter

She will find the flowers soon

Catch them suddenly – pinks – 

In a glance, surprised, as she enters...
