simon thorpe Poems

Tears of regret frozen to winters morbid face,
An icy heart entwined in cobwebbed lace,
It's the time for giving, for being a friend indeed,
It's a time to make the world happier for those desperately in need,
...

Two weeks to go until the man in red arrives,
A shiny sleigh pulled by reindeer he drives,
The air will be filled with children's joy and laughter,
A quick thought though for peace thereafter.
...

Rain and tears pour down the window of my life
Dark, dank drudgery shrouding the light
They say where there’s life there is hope
But for me an inexorably endless tunnel awaits
...

The heavens are distressed this morning,
A thunderous roar erupts piercing the break of dawn,
Rain lashes incessantly against the window pane,
I burrow deeper into myself,
...

Eyes cold as ice, black as coal,
staring lifelessly ahead to a distant dream,
The sun will not rise today,
I am left with memories of bygone days,
...

Autumns gold and green,
is a joy to behold,
swirling mist shrouding the land,
as the heron surveys rich pickings below,
...

Darkness engulfs the soul,
Night shrouding the daylight with a cloak of envy,
Jealous of the sultry, shimmering sunset that illuminated the skyline,
Demonic with dark despair,
...
