penny green Poems

Football is a game that requires a team
Scoring goals the ultimate desire
All you want to do is win
Ninety minutes when battle commences
...

It is just a game
Words I dare not utter
Other people have said the same
How dare you say that the reply is spluttered
...

There are daughters that great
And those that are good
I happen to have the best
I can't really comment on all the rest
...

Darkness still lays like a blanket across the sky
No one has yet stirred to greet a new day
I sit here quietly trying not to wake even a mouse
All is at peace here in this house
...

]No burning shore
Just a quiet country lane
Cows mooing a lament
Hues of grey colour the sky
...

Quantify pain if you can
Describe in words that make sense
Suffer it, but please suffer alone
Keep it to yourself
...

Life a series of brief moments
Held for a second, barely a breathe
A sigh and a fragment of a life has gone
Perphaps a sensation of pain so fierce
...

Snowflakes fluttering through the air
The cold snap something the whole of Britain has to share
Poor tiny lambs nestle against their mothers
While icy winds blow beneath her coat they lay smothered
...

blue eyes
Eyes of blue
Oceans of hope
Endless tumbling waves
...

Words fall like leaves tumbling from autumn trees
In a miraid of colours they flutter on the breeze

To describe the seasons in words
lifts the heart to soar like a flock of birds
...
