Della Perry Poems

Who wants to be a millionaire?
Sitting in that tall swivel chair
You've got a choice; A, B, C or D?
One is correct but not the other three!
...

Fragrances, gentle swaying
Like dancing ladies cavorting
On slim, elegant limbs
Washing, arms aloft, in the showers
...

Melodious notes floating on the air
Uncovering emotions, smiles, tears
Sounds so wondrous, quivering smiles
Inside your heart, a soul lies
...

Vegetarians can't get enough of them
Eating them every day
Growing them fresh in their gardens
Enjoying their super taste
...

Eyes wide
Unspeakable vision
Words flitting in the mind
Beauty
...

Have you ever shouted but no-one listened?
Have you ever screamed but no-one heard?
Have you ever yelled but no-one heeded?
Have you ever balled but no-one paid attention?
...

The streetwise kid
It's a way of life
A cold childhood
Cares for himself
...

Quiet woods was our haunt
Below the gooseberry bushes
Where we found out we were in love
Gooseberry picking our pretense
...

Bounce, bounce
Tennis ball, bounce,
From the house wall,
Monotonous sound
...

My sister's gang played
Hide and Seek in the dark street,
The ginger boy was always kind to me
None of the others noticed me
...
