Lindsey Priest Poems

I am looking at a painting
Of a cottage by the sea,
The waves are lapping gently,
And someone ‘s beckoning me
...

Have you ever been to Yorkshire on a bright and sunny day,
I know I am biased, but I really have to say,
There’s no better place on earth, and I’ve been to a few,
Yorkshire is the very best, well, that’s my view!
...

Nought per cent finance, what a con!
Nought per cent finance, you’re having me on
That's the offer that brought me in here,
Buying this car is going to cost me dear.
...

We are going to make a patchwork quilt
Before your very eyes,
To tell a special story,
Which will come as no surprise,
...

Worry Worry Worry
That’s all I seem to do.
Worry about everything
Especially about you!
...

Why am I always losing things?
Why do they disappear?
Here one minute, gone the next,
I’m sure I put them near.
...

We have got to dress up at school,
I can tell you we all feel a fool,
Even the kids say that it’s not cool,
Persuaded to dress up at school.
...

What is it with men and the remote control
Why can't he leave it alone?
He is switching from channel to channel,
Like a human metronome.
...

Exploded,
Riotous colour,
Petals bright as sunshine,
Splashes of scarlet,
...

Been to Las Vegas
Couldn’t believe my eyes
Searing heat and slot machines
Took me by surprise.
...
