Poetry by Martin - Verses from life
   


About
These are some of the compositions of my son-in-law, which I am putting here to share with anyone who enjoys them. The selection and format is mine, the inspiration and punctuation are all his.

Comments on the content should go to him, he generally writes them as a single long paragraph, if you don't like the presentation you should comment to me.

    Island (18:35)

    The sea laps against my shore,
      the cool ocean breeze blows through my trees.
    Soon the rain will come and cleanse us all.
      I'm not an island of one, but one part of an island.

    Ashes (14:21)

    As ashes fall upon my burdened shoulders,
      I struggle to go on, my journey is long.
    I must not fail, not for my weakness. I shed the ashes;
      walk tall with a mighty stride & finish the quest,
      for the ash is only as heavy as we let it be.
