That kiss, that kiss
That childlike kiss
That pecky on the cheek kiss
That I am here kiss
...
A Christmas tree! A Christmas tree!
With dark green needled memories
Of childhood dreams and mysteries
Wrapped present-like in front of me.
...
Time and time and time
again
i've sought a perfect rhyme
time and time and time
...
Anger is a virus
That needs not even air
To propagate contagion
Whenever it is shared.
...
They took me from my mother
But I didn’t even know
I was just a few months old
And she knew not where I’d go

If you think i'm crazy
You should meet my friend
When my madness it is over
She continues to the end

In one corner sat my conscience
In the other stood my fate
My conscience it called out to me
Asking to negotiate

I'm really quite a mad man
I'm so impetuous
I wear conflicting colours
And like singing on the bus.
...
I rewrote a previous poem of mine......
Brave buildings built in honour of
The ones they left behind
...
I have reaped a bitter harvest
I have sowed seeds that are sad
I have balanced all my wealth in life
Against the things i had
...
A fuller figured woman
should never be ashamed
of the ampleness upon her
nor the need to rearrange
...
I knew you'd have a fuller figure
But never thought that you'd be bigger
Than the side of any house
And me as skinny as a mouse
...
I got these pills for christmas
but not from santa claus
i got them from the pharmacy
with the greengrocer next door.

When Bin Laden came for breakfast
We were quite surprised
He just sat smiling gently
With no menace in his eyes
...
Can you hear the Whale Song resonating deep?
Can you hear that deep slow hum within your mind asleep?
Can you understand the Whale Song and feel its undulating tones
Vibrating through our bodies within our flesh and bone?

Mr. Abraham Abramovitch
Was very very rich
He bought a club called Chelsea
Who play football on a pitch

I used to write poetry at school back in the 60s and them somehow lost the habit. Only this year did i begin to write again. Some poems are in what I call my 'country and western style', some are somewhat morose and others wistful or playful or funny.. Whatever, I get a lot out of writing them. I rate other poems I read. Plese rate mine. Feedback of any form is invaluable. Thank you, David)
The Kiss I Miss
That kiss, that kiss
That childlike kiss
That pecky on the cheek kiss
That I am here kiss
That who the hell cares kiss
That kiss, that kiss I miss
