Comments about Stephen Katona
Moko's Farewell
One day he gave a woman a fright,
perhaps there was a danger white,
or just he felt alone.
The truth remains unknown.
Scars on his shiny coat,
some caused by boat,
others from fishing hooks,
spoiled his perfect looks.
Whenever I think of rhyming poetry, I think of Stephen Katona's sweetly rhyming verse. His poems, mostly on animals make me think of the illustrious 'animal poet'... Ted Hughes' poems. Stephen has created a parallel world of animals where they are understanding, clever, compassionate and intelligent as human beings. His poems are simple and sweet, enriched with positivity and edifying thoughts. Besides being a poet, he is a born cartoonist. I wish him greater success in the ensuing years!
