Notes for My Teenage Daughter
..My memory fades like weathered snaps,
The freckles made are at my back,
The sun has left an ageing clue,
To brighter days when I held you,
Now teenage ways are cutting through..
A Fool’s Heart
..I search the stars through misty eyes
Ships in the night reach foreign skies
My stomach teased by butterflies
A fool's heart jokes but can't tell lies..
San Tau Tsuen
..we set off slowly to a hill and a bend
but dropped a picture of a dear friend
along came a shiny new Mercedes Benz
with cutting smiles over knuckles and gems..
Donald’s Gold
..But men with needs . Turn tides and sands
Their referendums . Scorch the lands..
Replacing seeds . Of life for brands
and fools rush in . with cold press pans..
Belinda from Tinder
..Belinda wants “an honest man,
With flowing hair, all over tan
A love of fresh oysters
And a good appetite” ..
