Denis Martindale Poems

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?
...

The planet Krypton was his home,
Until the day it died,
Then in a spaceship forced to roam
Across the void so wide...
...

So many big cats lurk out there!
They prowl by day and night!
Enough to give your heart a scare
And make you gulp with fright!
...

The prophecies that came to pass
Were not completely done,
For soon would come the evil farce,
The judgment of God's Son,
...

White tiger, there, why do you stare
At me so haughty still,
As if you truly just don't care
And never, ever will?
...

The two white tigers laid flat out,
Fatigued yet still awake,
Yet even tigers cannot flout
The need to take a break...
...

The Triune God made manifest,
Fulfilling prophecies,
Despite the fact Christ did His best
And was now on His knees,
...

When poets pen their brand new rhymes,
The ink anoints each page,
Each holy word to Heaven climbs,
Ascending at that stage,
...
