Stevie Taite Poems

J uncture of the year
A t which we like to make
N umerous null promises
U ndoubtedly they'll take
...

I am frightened of my own small voice
('But you have to use me, there's no choice')

I am anxious, every sound I make
(' Worried that you'll make a mistake? ')
...

I know young lady called Dee
Who lived in a bubblegum tree
She savoured the view
Whilst big bubbles she blew
...

Gloriously Grubby
Sipping on his Mountain Dew
A picture of contentment
Captured there in my rear view
...

Capturing hearts with their mystical arrows
Up in the clouds, little cherubs do flutter
Playing their part in the search for new lovers
Intent on bringing the lonely together.
...

I like this site, don't get me wrong
It's my poetry abode
But the keyhole needs some oiling
Bloody verification code
...

My breath catches
in the ripples
of finality
at the surface of his beer
...

My sweet obsession

Here inside my heart
Every day reminding
...

I wish I was clever at painting my nails
But varnish just laughs in my face
I try to paint flawlessly, but doomed to fail
The lacquer won't stay in its place
...

I left you simmering, surface Undulation
Mustn't boil over, refrain
A 'burn in hell' type revelation
My conscience turned off the flame
...
