Re: Roberts poems (part 1)
Robert - could you think about 'Pepe' a black bird that comes around each year to give us a few of his tunes, I love him and look forward to his visits, he doesn't know that of course - or does he....Last year his favourite tree, right opposite my window, where he would perch right at the top, was - chopped in half ! More like a hedge now..So, I cant see my Pepe now, this makes me
...but - I can hear him still ......So Robert - have I inspired you .....?

Stop and say hi to people you pass by
The big issue seller, be brave, go on try
That person you spoke to in Tesco’s queue
Has spoken to no one that day but you
I started this posting, with part tongue in cheek
But will end it plainly, so I wont seem a geek
Treat others as you like to be treated your self
It really works wonders and is good for your health

Well, if we can put in requests
Here's mine! I am a water lover Robert (star sign Virgo, must be absolute proof
) one of my favourite sights is the sunlight dancing on the surface of water (whether that be the sea or a stream, it matters not). I have a couple of poems in frames - one about that sight ^^^ would join them!

Re: Roberts poems (part 1)
for PAtPEPE.
Pepe is a Dandy and sings
Each morn for me
I know he’s there behind the stump
The remains of his favourite tree
He trills and whistles gaily
In celebration of his blissful life
I think sometimes that maybe
He prefers me to his plain wife
I’ll guess he’ll never know
What he means to me
I hope he’ll never go
But find a nearby tree.

Re: Roberts poems (part 1)
Language is a precious thingConveying our innermost thought
Putting meaning, then passing it on
Through all that we've been taught.
We're all of us gifted, in our own way
And thankful for skills we hold dear;
But for all our talents how many can bring
A descriptively word-induced tear?
A memory flickers like a picture show
When prompted by words in rhyme
Long-past events come back to life
Like a bridge connecting time.
So thank you poets, past and present
For your gift of words and vision
To evoke emotion by the stroke of a pen
Is a rare but wonderful mission.
That's my offering and a poetic thank you to Robert for his writings.
