Endless love
Held on fingertips
Waiting to caress your cheek

Confession of love
Lingering on my lips
To dance with yours they seek

Broken pieces shape
the Cathedral of your soul,
stained light still shines true.

Nothing is Impossible
Because there is always Something
And always a Way
For Something
To happen.

My friends abroad think I'm peculiarly English
My English friends think I'm peculiarly northern
My northern friends just think I'm peculiar
But at least I've got friends

                                             By Phil Roberts

dragonflies lie in state
amid faded bones of grass
which keen stiffly
to a summer requiem
carried through the low autumn light
on a rattling train of wind.

Life is like porridge
Never get discouraged
Sometimes hot sometimes cold, you never know what the future holds.
And for those lukewarm moments
You have the world and own it
In your heart and it will never depart.

You do not win because you are smart
you have first to acquire the winning-art

People like that I speak plain.
They don’t like when poets are vain.
Hope they love this little refrain.
Think I’ll do it, again and again.

Flowery language isn’t always for me,
I keep my verses wandering free.
Simple words do hold the key,
So a sapling becomes a tree.
