Most days I would try to write a poem; it is a practice, as I suppose is meditation, or smiling, or watching the world go by

Imperfect Words
Mown grass cut in crooked lines
She finds her beauty in the painter’s eye
There by the water butt & the buzzing fly
Twisted bark and washing lines
Drying out the nearly nigh on summer
Starched collars and double cuffs
A uniform to bluff the chuffs you must
Just now and then disapprove of
A lazy space; a place to phase
A future resurrection, a collection filed under
Imperfect words, absurd to think that they
Make you smile, while all the while
The workmen wonder
Thunder rolls, ramblers stroll
All for the love of someone East of Clumber
Lumberjacks and rookies hats
Right on mountains, with fountains
To the sea, through the waterfalls
Seats in the operatic stalls
Hold all the calls
For then you’ll see
The mown grass
The fir pined tree
The painter man - and me

Peaceful Deflection
Crimson in bloom
Right beside the buttercup
A fair distance
From the pampas grass
Or the overhead
Twin propelled
Airships
Aeronautical extravaganzas
A little closer
A good deal closer
With closed petals
And
The touch of silk
Colours
Of the oriental
Sunrise
Escape from
Thistles throttled
Bottled scent worn
On special days
And Saturdays
And always
Worn always
When in love
I sprinkle dry grass
On my cotton
Sweatshirt
To see the grasses
Shadowed patterns
& to see the
Sparkle of the sunlight’s
Rainbows on my spectacles
Smell of fresh grass
Smell of dead grass
Aroma of peaceful
Deflection in sunshine time
Of late afternoons
Later more than mornings
Before the day sets, with the
Dance of the evening primrose
Long thin grasses waive and bend
The heat’s rays it seems defeats them
Thankful for the breeze
With her soft fingers
She tends them
Lends them back a life
She stands them up to be
Once more erect

This Night
I cannot turn out the light
That you turned on for me
Even if it was my choice
It is not my overriding right
I turn, to turn out the night
But cannot override the sight
Filled with resounding voice
That you turned on for me
