Paul Warren Poems

I was watching television today
And I heard a millionaire in Britain say
That the world's ills have occurred because
Women were allowed to wear trousers as their cause
...

What makes us who we are?
Is it all the years that have come so far?
Or is it the potential that is not met?
That we sit now and look to forget?
...

Hovering over the paddock it lingered
A metallic spaceship with gold lights blinkered
It had been on the grass with a humming sound
As the outside of the craft spun all around
...

Tied to my mobile
Why not just be left alone
Tied unseen to all.
...

Peace on earth for all
For everyone lift your eyes now
God loves all of us!
...

Work it out
There is no need to shout
Just get it out
There is nothing to worry about
...

People don't show their real face to remain unknown
Their public face is one they don't want blown
So don't show the things which make them vulnerable
And will hide from each other to make them more able
...

Whose point of view should you take
When their are different points of view to take
Remember people will make it seem
That their point of view is best to glean
...

My father told me of his days on the destroyer
Sailing the Pacific on the HMAS Arunta as a sailor
He manned the guns and learnt the craft
Of defending Australia before the mast
...

What would the world have been like
If I wasn't born on that Friday night
Would there have been another middle child
In all would there have been another life filed
...
