Denis Martindale Poems

The poem's in a rush today!
So fast it tells me things
And yet I know, along the way,
The errors that speed brings...
...

I reflect upon my visitation, the time of revelation,
When sleeping one night, the dream began for me,
For there I was and made aware physically of my dream,
Standing, upon the slope of a hill, one leg higher than the other,
...

The lion left his sweet repose
As evening brought the moon,
His late patrol was now quite close
And he must start it soon...
...

When Jesus walked upon this Earth,
Repentant hearts He met,
Such that they found some sense of worth
That overcame regret...
...

When I tune in to Jesus Christ,
At home, with my TV,
I see my Saviour sacrificed,
For all humanity...
...

The tiger strode upon the earth,
The land he claimed as his,
Such that he had some sense of worth,
Some portion known as bliss...
...

The tiger cub was prone to sit,
To squat for all to see,
Perhaps to pause, to rest a bit,
Or just to pose with glee...
...

The big black wolf was strong and tough,
No coward soul was he,
But certainly devoid of love
When hunting carefully...
...

When falcons can be trained by Man,
A partnership is born
And if all things then go to plan,
Is that something to scorn?
...

Orangutans aren't widely known,
Like chimpanzees they roam,
Sometimes in groups, sometimes alone,
No special place as home...
...
