Francis Meyrick Poems

We have never met

(A love poem to a gentle lass, who quietly encouraged me to write)
...

EXILE
...

A Quiet Song


One day I'll be gone
...

Did you ever

(thinking of my Mother, who died when I was young, thinking of my daughter, and remembering walking alone along a quiet beach in Angola, Africa, with the waves coming steadily ashore...)
...

I flew alone


(An allegory of Man's eternal quest for love)
...

(Bounced off: Butterfli's 'I call you friend')

Friendship
...

(This is a poem to a former lover, who died alone in a single vehicle car crash.
We rode a motorbike for thousands of miles.)
