I am a 52 year old Comedy Poet. Much in life amuses me, and I often find myself committing what I see into rhyme. My poetry tends to have an 'earthy quality' which may originate from a life time of living on Merseyside in England. I am by definition a 'Liverpudlian'. Apparently we have the unique ability to laugh at ourselves before others. Looking at most of us, I can see why that would be the case. Liverpool has recently held the prestigeous title of 'European Capital of Culture'. I doubt you will see much of that in the writings of Stephen J Stirk Esquire. I am a semi retired member of the Civil Service, and spent much of my career in the Magisterial Service as a manager. I feel that it ... more »

Kiddies Party
The kiddie’s party’s underway
The titchy ones have come to play
Criteria for getting in
You must be three and love a din
Jammy cakes for all such do’s
Are worn in hair and some on shoes
Into mouths, a little goes
But takes a detour up the nose
Cakes with little sweeties on
Turn your back the sweeties gone
And all the little kids deny
Surprise surprise, it’s their first lie
Pass the parcel round it goes
You pass it till the music slows
But some hold on and won’t be beat
Surprise surprise it’s called deceit
Blind mans buff they feel...
Steve, is a poet of many skills. I especially enjoy his comedy pieces. Has always been one of my favourite writers on here. His poems should never be missed.
Wow You are not short of admires Steve....
Does it not prove the fact that Humour is so essential in everybody's lives.

Laughter is the best medicine....

Jim Scallan wrote 'You have rekindled my sense of humour that once was doused by the icy rain(yellow rain?) of reality. I thank you dearly for exposing yourself in such a manner! . Let me know when your time is up, I know some nice places we can hide'
Now that I know where you're hiding........
There is many a true word spoken in jest and Stephen will make you laugh and when you stop laughing he makes you think.Awesome talent
Stephen Stirk is a talented poet who has been blessed with the gift of healing the spirit. His humor like his talent is witty, sharp, thought provoking and unique. He can take mundane situations and not only see the humor in it but express them in a manner that will touch hearts. Check him out, you will not be disappointed.
Yes, I enjoyed this one. Very true... in an exaggerated slapstick kind of way.
I truly enjoy Stephen's work he writes in his poems and his comments. He has a knack of reaching deep into your soul and pulling out thoughts of ' oh yea, I have felt that before.' His words are a pleasure reading, anticipating, what joys he will bring forward for you to read the next time.
I am delighted to write about Stephen's work here on poemhunter. It is said that Laughter is the same in all languages. This is so true and Steve has mastered the art of taking life situations and converting them into rhyme to elicit laughter and soothe the troubled soul.
William James (author, psyhcologist) said that ' We do not laugh because we are happy, we are happy because we laugh.' And anytime I feel I need that dose of gaiety and mirth I simply log on and go to Stephen's page where I find relief from my dialy cares.
It takes a great deal of talent to take situations such as he tackles and turn them into a pleasant rhyme that rings true and flows and entertains all at the same time. He is a master at this and I highly recommend checking his work on a regular basis.
My regards to him as a poet.
