Susan Wood Poems

If you try to philosophise!
The reason folks violate others lives
The simple fact is very plain,
They want the bitterness to remain.
...

It happened many centuries ago,
When Eros, rampant in his mischievous rage
Did plague the earth with his golden bow.
Many a man and maid to show,
...

(A moment captured whilst travelling from East Sussex on July 7th 2005 after having heard of the London bombings just before we left. And having heard that Brighton Station had been closed because of Terrorists, thankful we were driving home. Yet having thoughts of what others were facing driving into London as they drove home from their daily work.)

The omnipotent one looked out of a cloud with his celestial eye
A ray of sunlight, beamed down from the heavenly one on high
...

Goodbye my friend,
Surf the waves and paint the sky.
You coloured our lives, with different hues,
From brilliant whites to the deepest blues.
...

Bonfire Night
