Della Perry Poems

It all makes sense now
The selfish, the mean spirited.
They think they are doing the right thing
'Look after my own.'
...

Here for you - on holiday sorry!
Phone me - doesn't answer
Pop in to chat - text first
Come around - not in; hiding behind sofa
...

Reaching the benchmark was easy
I trangress, excelled at the art
Was rehearsed in transgression
Prepared from birth one may say.
...

Ladies Unite
Though life is hard
Through it's ups and downs
Celebrate womanhood
...

A roar above in a windless sky
An engine sounding an alarm goes by
A quiet afternoon of peace?
A chorus of birdsong to release
...

No life is ever wasted
No matter how long they have lived
For every life has touched another
Made it better
...

There are books of unread poems
On my dusty shelves
That no-one reads
Many don't know they exist at all.
...

It was so humid today
That the clap of thunder
Was like the start gun
In a horse race.
...

Vote to stay
Vote to go
It's all up to EU!
The propaganda is rife once again!
...

Curtains gap reveals
Singing starlings
No breeze
Still trees
...
