Denis Martindale Poems

The skinflint saved his policies,
The skinflint saved his plugs,
The skinflint saved his first house keys,
The skinflint saved his mugs...
...

White tiger eyes, white tiger eyes,
So mesmeric in blue,
Are they to cut me down to size
So that I might fear you?
...

At first, the two wolves look the same
As others in the pack,
Yet in their hearts there burns a flame
That flares when they attack,
...

The Royal Tiger was acclaimed
Across the whole world wide
And in great pictures he'd been framed,
With genius and pride...
...

The pearl of great price was waiting...
In matchless majesty...
And he had no hesitating,
When he that pearl did see!
...

How blessed are they that love the Lord! How blessed are they indeed!
For they love Him not for reward, for profit or for greed...
Their hearts have turned to God who cares and love the Saviour, too.
Christ teaches them to say their prayers, what more can Jesus do?
...

The lovely Lisa has a smile
That brightens up my day.
Besides her beauty and her style,
Our Lisa loves to play.
...

Across the plains of Africa,
Elephants come and go,
There lives this mighty superstar,
That most have come to know.
...

The image of the pussycat,
So playful, without care...
Was gone in seconds, just like that,
When fury made him stare...
...

Towards the end of one more day
The lion lays in wait,
As brilliant sunshine melts away,
God's night to recreate...
...
