Today is not hot
Today is not Hot.
Ought I to confess my thought?
Ought I not?
The day is cold
But the grave is colder yet.
Would I regret
Where I to be bold
And unfold
My thought?
Ought I? Ought I not?
In the final sleep there is neither cold
Nor hot.
The day is cold,
Should I be bold?
Or not?

Elicit
The creep
Of girl’s feet
Bring delight
At night.
Neighbours sleep.
A Lady Who’s Name Is Brass
A lady who’s name is Brass
Has a heart fragile as glass.
When I criticised her art
Her tears did start
And her friends all called me crass!

Is there a difference as regards “reading” and “listening” to a book?
I was somewhat taken back when, several weeks ago, I heard an item on BBC Radio 4’s PM programme concerning reading.

One listener expressed the view that listening to audio books was not reading, and that anyone who said that they had read a bo...

Ought
Ought
I to fall
For a tall
Or a short
Girl?
One may be gone
In a whirl
Of love or lust
It matters not, for we are dust
And must
Ourselves besport
Ere we are caught
By one who will
Forever chill
Both love and lust.

A Confusion Over Socks
A confusion over socks.
She laughs.

Are bound in a rhyme.
