Allison Riches Poems
Irony –
Ahhh triumphant I rode; exit left from social battle.
The curtain fell and they cried 'Encore', but I gave none.
...
I love my Tom, my Michael, my eyes and heart bleed at the thought
Of my loves of 7 years deserting tiny Rye; oh God I'm distraught;
The shaking of my hands as I struggle to cope,
True love hath departed taking all of my hope;
...
From the owner of the River Café
When I think of the Cafe by the river;
The excitement makes me shake and then quiver;
...
Karma
Karma is my brilliant best friend;
She’s patient and will always defend;
...
The Rye Smile………….
Romance springs from the passionate surroundings;
Forests and sea combine their whispers;
...
What she used to say.
You’re no oil painting you know and you never keep in touch.
...
Irony – (first night of return following ban from Ypres lifted)
Ahhh triumphant I rode; exit left from social battle.
The curtain fell and they cried 'Encore', but I gave none.
...
Grieving my Mum
Dear Mum, I remember grooming my womble aged nine at prep school;
...
Thai Girls do Playden
There once was a brothel in Rye,
Opened by girls flown from Thai.
...
Karma
Karma is my brilliant best friend;
She’s patient and will always defend;
...
The Hill of Understanding
I stand on the hill of understanding
...
Allison Riches Biography
In the middle ages, with 2 fabulous girls, aged nearly 8 and just 10, moved to the sussex countryside exactly 9 years ago (july 2008) . During this time have been through hell - bizarre in comparison to my formative years, but then is that life? hence have been writing, but only after the sudden loss of my Mum to cancer. I have always taken 'risks', though in my book were perfectly logical steps to follow, in pursuit of financial security. I have had a very harsh learning curve when it comes to the countryside council, and a few idiots I naively allowed enter my life, hence a very bizarre, but intensive learning curve of life, as a direct result. Reflection on my life, merely looking for the justification of 'where I went wrong' has taught me that 'I went wrong' by being arrogant and assuming. To have an ego crushed, is learning, at least if you crawl out alive. One must always be truthful and straight, and in particular, never judge. Live and let live is a state that holds more weight than any other. 'If one is to live by the sword, one shall die by the sword.' These words haven't been carved lightly. I am currently writing 2 books, 'Glorious in Kent' - comedy fiction; and 'Grooming my Womble' - true to my life, and in scribble stage at the moment 'The Book of Now Then Now Then, ' influenced in title by Sir Jim Saville himself, and in escence my life; also the failings of 'The Book of Now'.)

(social) Irony
Irony –
Ahhh triumphant I rode; exit left from social battle.
The curtain fell and they cried 'Encore', but I gave none.
I left them hanging in the air, captivated, wanting more;
I smiled to myself as I walked head held high through the door.
Their memories brittle and like sheep they herd
but I saw the sun rise every day remembering how absurd
their behaviour towards me some time passed
when driven from their social gatherings and how they all laughed.
My ego destroyed and left in tatters, fodder for entertainment
when I turned to them at my lowest point I was 'nout but an embarrassment.
It really hurt at the time but tonight was perfect
as those very same people had forgotten their reject.
A trivial moment, maybe, but put a huge personal crisis to rest
No longer was I the one to mock and detest
as illusiveness and quiet caring, with ample patience did show
that it wasn't me that had learnt but them that had grown;
unwittingly.......
