Paul Warren Poems

Proudly they marched through Sydney town
After defeating the Italian cruiser as it sunk down
It was February '41 and the war wasn't going well
The Sydney returned to Australia after Curtain's tell
...

In the end I have realized it is so true
After my conclusion from this I drew
When it is measuring your brain-power
Daughters beat fathers at what-ever the hour
...

As I stood, “It’s just collateral damage” I heard in my dismay
To make an omelette you have break an egg he did empathically say
You know working for the police you’ve got to harden up
There’s no time for people who look for a communal cup
...

Go find your own space of happy contentment
That will come out of nowhere to suddenly ferment
It maybe that special song that takes you along
To a place and time where you know you belong
...

Who are you to judge having never walked in my shoes?
To see it in your narrowed eyes and the words you choose
There are many things that I have in my anguish hidden
Whilst you stand there in front of me with no charity given
...

An icy road is such a long drive home
The car is warm it’s been so far to roam
My baby is here who is the love of my life
I lose control and the car slides in strife
...

They say old soldiers never die they just fade away
Or is that just the story others would like to convey?
They stand as tall as their aged backs will allow
Keeping their word to their mates as their vow
...

The moonlight breaks a silvery light
Across your face in love’s sheer delight
The years roll by as I count each one
Our love together as bright as the sun
...

The blues are the sound track to our world
A raunchy guitar riff as our banner unfurled
And I know that as our years go quickly by
With my rock steady girl together we’ll fly
...

There were two tribes going to war
Sydney and Carlton both wanting to score
Each team had their heroes all true blue
To mark the ball high in the sky they flew
...
