Roger Stapenhill Poems

A country lane, awakening Spring,
hedges and trees, leafy offering.
Young lambs bounding across the field.
The willow soon its catkin yield
...

THE TRAVELLER

Lonely man on lonely road,
a battered pram for his meagre load.
...

Imagine a star shining bright in the sky
a man and a woman with nowhere to lie
a stable so lowly nothing more to be found
a mattress of straw on the hard ground
...
