Denis Martindale Poems

Some poems are impatient things!
Yes, they pace up and down!
And while they're waiting in the wings
They're prone to wear a frown...
...

When I was young and God was close
And lived inside my heart,
The promises inside me rose
As I made my new start...
...

I don't know where he's flown off to,
Moonlighting I suspect,
My part-time hero simply flew
And left me to reflect...
...

With his turned up nose and whiskers
At all that life could bring,
The tiger known as Sour Puss,
Would growl at anything!
...

Her email was a bitter pill,
She was no more my friend,
I sat there mid a sudden chill
I thought would never end...
...

Is there a best time
To do what we can?
That question's sublime,
As God's got a plan...
...

When two white tigers felt such peace
In their own company,
Tranquillity had brought them ease,
So pleasing now to see...
...

God gave a Christian a mission,
A sacred destiny!
When greeted with derision,
He offered clemency!
...

The Devil tried his level best
The day that Jesus died,
But even he was so hard pressed,
Temptations every side...
...

When God made Man and Woman, too,
Freewill gave them their start,
But would they love God's point of view
Or from God's wisdom part?
...
