Paul Warren Poems

Who will welcome you
Now your day is through
To greet you as you walk in
And see them all again
...

Saturday afternoon at the shops
Families together laughing and loving a lot
Then evil came with deadly intent
Joel Cauci stalked them with his knife bent
...

Tropical rain pouring down
Giving us that pitter pat sound
Still warm and humid weather
God has put for us together
...

It's the little things you do
That make me love you
And when the day is though
They make me smile too
...

It was an afternoon ride with their soccer team
When the rain came down in a Monsoon stream
So the team and it's coach took shelter in a cave found there
As the cave system flooded in a life altering scare
...

I found a place
Where I want to stay
Not to ponder upon yesterday
Or think about tomorrow
...

In the seventies I drove the Eyre Highway
The Southern Ocean in the Great Australian Bight way
It was sealed road by then and really straight to gain
Miles of road crossing the treeless Nullabor Plain
...

Darkness shrouds the day
Light retreats away
A clear winter night
The sun barely put up a fight
...

What are the things that eat at you
In the quiet times when you think it through
Do you mull over a time
When you should have been better in your rhyme
...

When I was a kid I liked to ride my bike
I used to go everywhere pedalling as hard as I might
Whether it was a sunny day or winter time
The road stretched ahead and the fun was sublime
...
