Denis Martindale Poems

Each surfer seeks the perfect wave,
It's like their Holy Grail,
It's like no need in being brave,
It's like they cannot fail...
...

From Noah to the present day,
A rainbow spans the skies,
Such that a man is prone to pray
For all that God supplies...
...

True poetry is like a rose
That blossoms in each heart,
Or like a twinkling star that glows
When sunshine must depart...

For Denis Martindale,
Also provides another stage
That goes beyond the scale...
...

The leopard cub felt mighty good,
It was a brand new day,
As he surveyed the neighbourhood,
Intent on nought but play...
...

Yes, there he was, the livelong day,
Content to peck, peck, peck!
Without complaint, no thought to say,
He'd hurt his poor old neck!
...

Towards the wondrous, pale blue sky,
The mountain top to hide,
The snow leopard climbed, way up high,
Upon the mountain side...
...

The lofty-looking lioness
Was quite a sight to see,
With feline posture and prowess
She strode with certainty...
...

A child of Vulcan long ago,
Half-human from the start,
Tormenting feelings yet to know
That could tear him apart...
...

Although they started as equals,
The race, of course, began,
From then on, who of us foretells
What purposes they plan?
