Denis Martindale Poems

The wolf watched everything in sight
While he heard every sound,
For soon he'd run with all his might
Across the unturned ground...
...

Wear your poppy with pride
Yet with humility
Because so many died
To gain our victory!
...

Four chambered-hearts that beat with love
As saints when born again,
By faith with prayers that rise above,
Beyond all mortal ken,
...

Surely it shall come to pass
That those who pray shall be heard,
For I am not deaf to those I love,
Whose names are known to Me.
...

Hello, poet, hello, poetry!
Hello to questions within!
Hello to God-blessed destiny,
If you do not give in...
...

My heart's as light as a feather,
Each time I kiss your face,
Like each time you say I'm clever
Or handy round the place...
...

Sometimes we write for ourselves,
yet share it with others
and who knows the amazing good
that such poetry achieves?
...

There is something quite vulnerable here,
Like when you find a soulmate more than a friend,
A love more than a passing relationship...
The essence of trust issues being put to one side,
...

Everyone who wants to change the world has already done it,
just by wanting to, because that's the first step we must make
on our journey to joy, and without that first step, what next?
But once that first step has been taken, the second soon follows,
...

Every single time I support charities like Oxfam,

I am Superman, Batman, Spider-Man,
...
