Paul Warren Poems

Think of a time
When the world was mine
And the sun blessed the sky
As the world flew by
...

I wanna ride down Route 66
The ultimate road trip
Ridin' wind in your hair along Main Street, USA
Hey Man - what do ya say!
...

When you're home do you kick-off your shoes
Loosen your belt and have a snooze
Are you at home next to the fire
And to be nowhere else is your desire
...

Be in command
Is the call
Be able to decide
In your all
...

In 1947 in the Straits of Malacca near Indonesia
An old Dutch freighter theSS Ourang Medan
Sent a message out that the whole crew was dead
With the last message from the operator being, "I die"
...

Sometimes in the morning
I wake up by your side
And I know then I'm not dreaming
I feel so satisfied
...

You can't dwell on it
For it gets to you in the end
With each day
You sit and think of it
...

I was on the SS Winterhaven on that night in 1977
My name is Leonard Bishop and I am the second officer
When we passed over the deep six grave of the SS Titanic
It was evening time and I was making my rounds
...

I want a world
Where kindness is held
To be the way it's meant to be
And it is enough to be alive and free
...

Work is all but done
And retirement is finally won
My music is golden old
With my stories are now told
...
