Craig Lincoln Poems
I have some stories I wish to tell
My life in memories like waters from a well
Did they happen in just this way
Or are these moments like scenes from a play
...
On angel's wings you were taken away
You left me behind and here I must stay
Memories seeded from time spent with you
Shared lives spent together as one not two
...
Words written for you and me
Fact, fiction, poetry or prose they write
Compelling to us like flowers to a bee
...
Did I learn lessons to last a lifetime
Lessons once learnt not forgotten
Or did I learn lessons just to pass time
Lessons once learnt soon forgotten
...
The cooling days are on their way
As Summer slowly says goodbye
The morning greets me every day
Beneath a dull grey sombre sky
...
For love of writing I put pen to page
The words come tumbling and spill out before
I keep on writing my need demands more
The joy of writing now takes centre stage
...
My garden in spring a lovely thing
Bees buzz among the Banksia
Emerald leaves rustle and play
Jasmine scent fills the air
...
It's off to the dentist today
With dread I count the hours down
Pain I know will be on the way
My fate awaits across the town
...

The Best Poem Of Craig Lincoln
I Remember It Well
I have some stories I wish to tell
My life in memories like waters from a well
Did they happen in just this way
Or are these moments like scenes from a play
In 51 as a Cleveland DJ
I told them 'rock and roll' is here to stay
It was 53 with Norgay beside
I reached the summit with a steady stride
October 57 the space race I began
When Grechko's maths I finished by hand
In 1960 with John and Paul
Mersey side music we exposed to all
December 64 to the United Nations I demand
Apartheid can longer be allowed to stand
It was Capetown in 1967 as I recall
Christiaan needed my help with a heart to install
Apparently I muddled up my line
When on the moon I stepped in 1969
In 72 it was deep throat and me
Tricky Dicky was down on one knee
To publish my writing no longer to tarry
I started in 74 with a book called Carrie
George I said it's 77
What about a western set in the heavens
A bullet I took in March 81
Allowed a presidents term to run
Ben asked me for help in 1983
I told him a secret 'the keel is the key'
June 87 as I recall
I told young Gorby 'tear down this wall'
My 'The splendor of truth' promulgated in 93
A tome for the ages written for all to see
With Wilmut and Campbell and a box of new tricks
We ensured Dolly was born in July of 96
March of 99 with Jones and Piccard
We floated round the world then landed in Africa's backyard
Full to the brim one could say
Of an extraordinary life lived day by day
To me however you may see it
Those days were mine to remember albeit
