David Wood Poems

We met only when our eyes
Fell in love

She was so gentle so kind
...

That glowing orb of yellow daffodil
Darkening from yellow to orange glow
From the west faint embers that thrill
A shimmering breeze that dips below
...

Daffodils in their twilight fade
As May begins to shine
Their fragrance lost for another year,
A display both delicate and fine.
...

I lay here dreaming that you love me
In that half twilight world between sleep
And being awake just before dawn
When it is neither night nor day.
...

Unprovoked aggression has always been
The act of a coward and a thug.
And when it's uncovered and is seen,
All the victims you just want to hug.
...

Love is stronger than Death
More precious than life,
Until you find it you may disagree,
But you will confirm when it has
...

The field was dotted with them,
Hay bales stacked high on high
With field mice and shrews making hay
Running and playing between the bales
...

Christmas can be tough
When you spend it all alone
So I'll close my eyes
...

Final cockpit check
All clear above and behind
Seems to have been missed
...

Sitting on the promenade
Or the sandy beach below,
Feeling the wind blow softly
Through your hair and kiss
...
