Denis Martindale Poems

Why is God a God of wonders, the Cosmos to create?
With some creatures that have stunned us, some tiny and some great.

With lands and seas and oceans... and miracles so clear,
...

Oh, how wonderful the Lord is
In answer to our prayers
And billions can agree to this
Because they know He cares!
...

One time machine, that's all I need,
Just one and one alone,
In one last effort to succeed,
No more just on my own...
...

How do I write a poem, friends?
With one phrase at a time,
Until, of course, the last verse ends
And each verse looks sublime...
...

The British Spirit cannot be destroyed,
at its height it is resplendent,
resilient, steadfast to the end,
boldly opposing injustice,
...

Two Christian men had passed away,
No longer of this Earth,
Then went to Heaven on that day,
Considering their worth...
...

Some tips for writing poetry?
Now wouldn't they be nice?
Perchance to please society,
Or just make folks think twice...
...

Two choices only, nothing more,
Except the path I walked before,
That's why, of course, I wasn't sure,
So which road should I choose?
...

How dare I write of my true love,
To let my secret out?
For I'm as placid as a dove,
I'm hardly one to shout...
...

One waits for that first rhyming penned,
Or that first thought at least,
One waits for wisdom God would send,
So beauty gets released...
...
