Paul Warren Poems

Growing up in poverty is a hard one
And alcohol and drug the norm once begun
If you don't have good role models
How can it be ideal just part of the hell
...

If you approach anyone
Remember always
There is seven metres
To be safe
...

A cry in the night
She's not breathing
Such a frantic sight
Call for an ambulance so frightening
...

Do you remember a day
When you felt it was Okay
And you laughed because
You wanted to smile of course
...

I dreamt I ran down the road
With the bright sun shining feeling very cold
Tanks and buildings are burning
Where bombs and missiles reigned bold
...

Heavenly body spinning around
Through a Solar System as the 3rd one down
Are we the only ones with their own planet
As life grows in and on it
...

It was believed the last German Great War veteran died aged 107 years on 25th January 2008 in a nursing home in Cologne, Germany. His name was Erich Kaestner. The Bundeswehr had no comment.

Erich Kaesner marched off to war
With his friends probably not knowing the score
...

Is it me that I want to explore
Just me I would implore
I don't show it all
So you won't see me or recall
...

Do you think the rains will break
He said to his wife at the morning wake
It's the 25 th of the month you know
And time to plant the crop to let it grow
...

You've gotta stand up straight
Carry that weight
Don't be bend at all
Or you may fall
...
