THE POETRY OF GWYNN WATT


 

 

ALMOST SPRING
By GWYNN WATT

Begins March,
The last of Winter's chill.

Come lift your heads
Sweet Blooms,
Smile fondly on the World.

 


 

PITTER-PATTER...
By GWYNN WATT

You set me all a'quiver
Your touch it lights a fire
My blood flows like a river
And pulse beats as a choir

Your face is tattooed on my heart
Your voice is ever with me
When Cupid tossed his little dart
I wish he'd blooming missed me!

 


 

EARLY DEMISE
By GWYNN WATT

Alone
On a bough, lazily sleeping,
Petals prone,
Soon the chill of Autumn frosts
Will attack
Turning golden head into black.

Secateurs close,
Surprise
My pretty golden-headed rose,
Early demise.

 


 

OUR ADOPTED ENGLISH TREASURE
By GWYNN WATT


We loved him with his
"Can you see what it is yet?"
As he built his pictures from nothing
Did he do it by magic or what?

With his cheeky Aussie accent
His chuckle, paint down his chest
Our Rolfie was always a one-off
And for children he was the best

Those two little boys on horse-back
Him with his three-legged song
And as 'Animal Hospital' came later
Our Rolfie could do no wrong

We still love this grey-bearded fellow
As we watch him paint on the box
As his pictures hang in a gallery
As the paint runs down his socks

He's our adopted English Treasure
A one-off Aussie gift
So thank you so much Mr Harris
For giving our hearts such a lift

GWYNN says: "I get several poems published each year in magazines such as FIRST TIME, MATES (a local publication in aid of Macmillan Nurses), and others. Most of my writing is autobiographical, and relates to people and incidents that do, or have, existed. Straight from the heart in fact!"
