Before you say, “Goodbye”,
And I break down and cry.
I’d like another chance,
To have another dance.

Before you turn your back,
And I am forced to pack.
I want my eyes to dry,
our love begin to fly.

Before you leave me blue,
not knowing what to do.
Don’t throw our love away,
rekindle it today.

I know I’ve let you down,
Behaved just like a clown.
But I can turn it round,
And all your friend confound.

I’m sorry most of all,
My love was far too small.
I treated you so cruel,
I’ve acted like a fool.

There’s no more I can say.
don’t make me go away.
Please take my love anew,
Lets see what we can do.

If given one more chance,
To kindle our romance.
There’s nothing I would do,
But go on loving you.

I love you.

My Name’s Jonah.
No wonder I’m so pale.
For the last few days,
I’ve been in this whale.
One day, as I lay on my bed,
I heard this voice inside my head.
“Get up”. It said. “Go to Nineveh”.
“Get up. Get gone. It’s not too far”.
Well!
I didn’t like God talking to me.
So I thought, “I’m not standing for this,
I’ll run [more]

Dreaming Love. A love poem by Dick Underwood
No sooner have I laid my head,
than you are here upon my bed.
Your smile it says that all is well,
I tingle inside every cell.
The darkness holds no fears for me,
As I full know your love I’ll see.
The darkness now is full of light,
As I look forward to your [more]

Snow
The world looked clean and bright,
as the snow lay fresh and white.
The children laughed and had such fun,
as they made a snowman with their mum.
The world looked glad.
The world looked dark and grey,
as the snow was worn away.
The children cried and all looked glum,
as they walked to school along with mum.
The world looked sad.

I see a graveyard so dark as it sits
The graves are so old
the grass is so whipped.
No one remembers not even a soul
But wait a fair lady
at the end of the road
Crying as she kneels
by the foot of a grave
Some one remembers
I am not all alone.

Anniversary Poem
The years have gone, I know not where
The years have gone, I know not where,
We’ve lived through laughter and through pain.
We’ve shared life’s tapestry of love,
And I would live it all again.
There have been times of joy unbound,
When we have shared the things we’ve found.
We’ve grown togetherer as we’ve learned,
And revelled both in every [more]

Funeral Poem For Grandad
What Made Granddad Grand
Granddad was gentle, and Granddad was kind, someone you could talk too, say what’s on your mind.
Patient and mellow, and honest and true, a man for all seasons, for me and for you.
Granddad understood, and Granddad knew best, to know him and love him, I really was blessed.
