Lulu Gee Poems

I love to walk at twilight
When gulls no longer screech,
Feeling the sand between my toes
As waves assault the beach.
...

As sunshine filters through the trees
Like shards of crystal glass
I look towards the heavens
Barefoot on new mown grass
...

My dressing table’s laden with oily balms and ointments
Serums, anti-wrinkle creams, emulsions and emollients

There’s everything to smooth my skin and wipe away the years
...

Dear Lord the nation’s weeping
For a baby so abused
Who suffered so appallingly
For this I am confused
...

As I lay my head to dream
On a pillow soft
I think of you and only you
As I do so oft
...

I love to catch a train............I do
Friends say, where you going Lu?
I think I’ll board the ten fifteen
And sit upon the velveteen
...

Sitting on my lounger
On the sunny patio
Drowsily relaxing
Listening to the radio.
...

I’d love to meet Toulouse-Lautrec
From the nineteenth century
Taking his hand in mine
To places quite unsavoury
...

Santa in his suit of red
Holding forth a toy
In his Christmas grotto
To a child wild eyed with joy
...

Come sit, it’s time for fairytales
From this my book of rhyme,
I’ll take you to a land of dreams
Where clocks don’t tell the time.
