"A Strange Camellia" - Geoffrey Dutton
Walking one wet evening
By my camellia trees,
Their buds unburst save for some frost-fired flowers,
I saw one bud half-opening
Of a red no frost could freeze.
But then as I, approaching,
Remembered that this tree,
The end one on the left, had pure white flowers,
A robin's eye, awakening,
Looked from the branch at me.
~Negative~
Running a few dry mornings
Away from your onion patches,
Yet unripe, save for some over-eager buds
I ignored the new smell
Of a scent no deodorant could disguise.
But then as I, retreating,
Forgot that this patch,
The first one on the right, had carrots planted,
A rabbits eye, dead cold,
Stared from the sky at you.

The Beauty by Debo
Always there when I’m down
Giving me the same old frown
All that I have to do is look into your eyes
So brown;
Feel hope
The lack to mope
Why must you be so beautiful?
So you;
Not like them…
Individual
Love in my head
Unreal
Which causes so much appeal:
Where will that path lead that you have lead?
Unseen by anyone
Oh beauty in my head;
Mine alone…
Forever
Negative image
The Pain by me
Never there when I need you around
Not even to give me that unique smile
To look away from your eyes
So blue
Full of pain
So much happiness
Why must you be so hateful
Not you
Just like them
Poser
Hate in my mind
So real
Your appeal is lost
The path is paved that you have lead
Seen by everyone
oh hate in my mind
Yours alone
Never ever
Yet again I tried
