Christopher Tye Poems

Flowers Of The Trenches

Look at where the trenches once were,
A century has all but made them invisible,
...

Human?

Human maybe but where's the humanity?
Ultimately the heart and spirit lives,
...

Sand

Seaside dreams of youth,
As we combed the beach for seashells,
...

The Dead

We once breathed and eat heartily,
Gazed upon sunrises and sunsets,
...

A War To End All Wars

A war to end all wars they said,
A lasting peace turned out to be empty words,
...

Shoe Sting (Cap Verse)

How I envy those people who can afford shoe string,
Got to be nice having money to spend,
...

Old Age And Treachery

Old age and treachery is the best way to be,
For what can youth and skill offer,
...

The Cemetery

Rows upon rows of headstones,
All once loved and cherished by family,
...

Ageing

Memories forgotten,
Old scars fading away,
...

Injustice

Famine for the masses,
Caviar for the few,
...
