I was born at a very early age, they allowed me to live, but forced me to go to School. That's where I sang hymns from my tiny Songs of Praise hymnbook.
Most of the time, I try to rhyme using the common metre 8 syllables then 6 then 8 then 6 ...
The jeering crowd like jackals stood,
To see what must be done.
Though once they thought this man was good,
They didn't see God's Son.
...
I saw them riding in a dream, Hell-bent upon their course,
And each one with a sickening scheme as he rode on his horse...
And so they moved, this world to claim with utmost misery,
With death and suffering as their aim, their shame and infamy!
...
Everything comes to those that wait,
If they wait patiently...
If not on time, it may be late,
But comes eventually.
...
Behold my form, my humble guise, my fragile fashioned grace.
Look deep within the giver’s eyes, some noble hopes to trace.
November’s here and folks look back to what heroes have bought.
They stood as one as things looked black, courageous as they fought.
...
It's true, I am an elephant!
In fact, I've always been!
I've got this trunk way up in front,
Stuck here, right in-between...
...
Stephen Gayford painted hundreds of paintings, and the eBay website still sells these, as prints and canvasses, and it's thanks to these that I was able to write about 700 poems for the poemhunter website. This journey began because of the wildlife art gallery shows on bid tv and price-drop tv on UK Freeview and Sky. I was able to see just how detailed these paintings were for the adults as well as their young ones. So many different creatures such that the big cats had their tales to tell, as did the dolphins, the pandas, the meerkats, the macaws, the eagles, the owls, and so many more. At times, the scenery was magnificent as well, so it's no wonder, that as a poet, I should write about such creatures, as if the shared wonders of the world, before any of these become extinct, and are lost forever... Denis Martindale. April 2021.
Comments
I INFORM HERE: I cannot give comments on the new poem J.O.U.R.N.A, L.I.S.T. A very pity, because there is no space for responses and to add the 5 stars
The Penniless Poet by Denis Martindale is quite an interesting poem. It throws light on the poet's methodology towards creating his poetry.
Inspired by my verse… No point in doing worse…//.... (Write A Poem About Yourself!) Lovely poem with a captivating poetic expression. Do you find it embarrassing to receive appreciative comments or rather critical feedback? Anyway, I respect your choice.
