Paul Reed Poems

A timeless peace settled on a Sunday

The only one of it's kind
...

'Here be friends...
Here be heroes...
Here be sunshine...
Here be grey...
...

I know you will carry my name

With honour and glory
...

I live by the roaring sea

By it's deep, dark slumbers there,
...

Is life just the eye of the storm

The exception not the norm
...

'If I have given you delight

By aught that I have done,
...

I work hard, I think

To what end, who knows?
...

When your only companion is yourself
And the fire burns low
The cinders contain your memories
Like lights in your mind they glow;
...

Architects are a funny breed
Drawing this and that
They have families to feed
Under their funny hat;
...

The luckiest life ever lived

But still to come to a close
...
