Denis Martindale Poems

Two penguins stood in one embrace,
United side-by-side,
Despite the coldness of the place,
They shared a sense of pride...
...

'O.K., that's it! ' the tiger said!
He'd simply had enough!
And in a rage, he shook his head,
Yes, things were looking rough!
...

When I was young, my garden grew
Its rambling roses there,
Thank God, because the whole year through
Sweet perfume I could share...
...

Eve, the Mother of Mothers,
Woken from her first sleep,
Thoughts coursing through her brain,
Accepting every sight and sound,
...

Trixie the Pixie was crying,
She'd simply had enough!
As her tiny heart was dying
Each time she fell in love!
...

Faith is following where Heaven leads,
Even if told to be tranquil,
Held safe within its stillness and peace.
...

His limbs are numb,
In bottom gear...
He's snoring some,
But he can't hear...
...

A slippery seal laid on the ice,
Not far from dreams, it's true,
He twitched his whiskers once or twice,
There's not much else to do...
...

How blessed are those that choose to write,
Expressing thoughts sublime,
As if to seek the greatest height,
Perchance then free2rhyme...
...

It doesn't matter what you are,
Lion, tiger or bear,
Or small child wishing on a star,
While at the moon you stare...
...
