Denis Martindale Poems

Two tigers laid upon the ground,
Stretched out like bookends there,
Against a backdrop void of sound,
With nothing to beware...
...

The farmer has his seeds of faith,
His land is ready now
And so he takes what God once gave,
The harvest to endow...
...

The jungle pool awaited him,
White tiger, tall and lean,
Engulfing him, so sleek and slim,
His black and white to clean...
...

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...
...

The poemhunter website page
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...
