Denis Martindale Poems

'That's it! I'm pooped! ' the lion said,
'I'm just a cub, that's all! '
And so he laid his heavy head
With no more strength to crawl...
...

The day arrived and I felt glad,
I was to be baptised...
To follow through on all I had,
Transformed by Jesus Christ!
...

From generation to generation
Jerusalem is blessed,
So behold the revelation,
For it is manifest!
...

Does a smile begin from nowhere,
A tear from outer space?
Or do they come from hearts that care
To settle on each face?
...

When we see Earth from outer space,
Our hearts are warmed within,
Revealed in splendour, Godly grace,
Life's journey to begin...
...

When Colin bought a computer, he didn't know a thing!
So in fact, without a tutor, he spent a lot, ker-ching!

So he plugged it in and waited... The PC screen stayed black!
...

Now's the time for revelation!
Now's the time for truth!
Now's the time for inspiration
Regardless of one's youth!
...

Within the land where tigers roam,
Some people spot their stripes
And on their PCs while at home
Perhaps they share their Skypes,
...

The dragon, taller than a tree,
Looked down on George's head,
While he looked up uncertainly
And fighting first his dread...
...

When George the Dragon Slayer slept,
Reliving how he fought,
He often woke and often wept,
As if it all meant nought...
...
