Christopher Tye Poems

Quaro (I Seek)

Always seeking answers,
Seeking out more questions,
...

Wombat Berry

Wombat Berry sounds cuddlier than Blackfellow's Oranges,
With your bright orange berries attracting wombats,
...

Bugs

Beautiful curious little creatures,
Ugly to some who don't look close enough,
...

ABC

Alphabet spaghetti for tea,
Books to read tonight,
...

Ant

Ant farms in school classrooms,
Nature's cleaners eating waste,
...

A Lincolnshire Lad - Lud

Louth flooded many times,
Utopia on a riverbank,
...

Kyofu (Mighty Wind)

Keeping us cool in summer,
Yew trees bowing into submission,
...

Slept

Slumbering so long as we want,
Laying as I slept to another world,
...

Awl

Always starting a hole,
Wood dented to make a hole,
...

Nail

Now is it a fitting or a tool,
A masonry nail with a wooden handle becomes an awl,
...
