We Ourselves Lose

We ourselves lose
To flirts
In skirts
And high-heeled shoes.

Scent carried on a summer’s breeze.
Girls who tease
And perchance
Please.

‘Tis the dance
That will never end
My friend
Or so we pretend.

THE SUSPECT AND OTHER T...

They Say that When Policemen Look Young

They say
That when policemen look young, you are getting old.
I was told
By a lady yesterday,
In a conversational way
That she was born
In the year
I came to old London town
To work.
A jerk
Of recognition within.
Hopes abandoned
There will be no sin …

The Blurb

Open a New Door is a poetic peep into the lives of the poets, Kim Blades and Robbie Cheadle, both of whom live in South Africa.

The book is divided into four categories: God bless Africa, God bless my family and friends, God bless me and God bless corporates and work. Each part is sub-divided into the good, the bad and the ugly of the two poets’ experiences, presented in rhyming verse, free-style, haiku and tanka, in each of these categories...

Early Morning Monday Humour

There was a wealthy Socialist called Jane
Who lived down an exclusive lane.
At her grand parties aplenty
She wept over the poor’s cupboards empty
Whilst sipping her expensive champagne.

There was a young lady called Brass
Who’s manners where extremely crass.
The parish priest named Moore
Could hear Brass snore
As he said the evening mass …

Whilst on My Way Home Last Night

Whilst on my way home last night
I met my dear friend Miss White.
When I said, “Hello”,
She said, “you should know
That my husband he is absent tonight …”.

I Know a Tough Young Man Called Grub

I know a tough young man called Grub
Who works in a very rough pub.
A tattooed young lady named miss Moore
Throws troublemakers out the door
And me, I own that pub.

Sunday Humour

Last night as I walked in
I heard a terrible din.
There by the fireplace
Dressed in silk and lace
Sat the devil drinking my neat gin!

Last night as I walked in
I heard a terrible din.
There by my fireplace
Dressed in silk and lace
Sat Lucifer playing the violin.

Last night as I lay in sleep
The devil into my room did creep.
I remember her sweet scent
And the time we spent
And now I’m off to sleep …

As I went to bed last night
I met a young lady called White.

Thinking Of You

Thinking of you
In the absence of shoe
And sock.

The clock
Does mock
Me
Not thee.
Yet still I see
You
Without shoe
Or sock

Should I regret
That I met
With you
Without the unlocking
Of shoe
Or stocking?
