Clive Blake Poems

When you are little like you…
Everything is exciting,
Everything is brand new.
...

You're never too old to learn something new,
You're never too old to explore,
You're never too old to have hopes and dreams,
You're never too old to want more,
...

May we forever be lovers,
May we forever be friends,
And should we hurt each other,
May we quickly make amends.
...

My heart's pumping,
My brain's starting gun has fired,
Watching Stephen Hawking on TV
Has made me feel inspired.
...

Dear Lord,
Don't let me ask only for myself,
For problems solved and better health,
Nor ask only for kin and friends,
...

Let me sail away forever,
Let me cast off from the shore,
Let the swirling mists engulf me,
Till reality rules no more,
...

The age of innocence,
A daughter we adore,
Long hot summer days,
A toddler only four.
...

In early eighteen-forty-four,
In Cornwall's heart; on Bodmin Moor,
Charlotte Dymond, a young farm maid,
Had her throat slit with a steel blade,
...

In the quiet of the night,
Where darkness steals the need for sight,
When most are asleep, I lie awake,
Waiting for the dawn to break,
...
