THESE COULD BE TRUE- FOR SURE
A New LifeShe was sick of being homeless eith too hot or cold
A Perfect PlaceWe forded the river, it was very low
All She Had All she had were a couple of candles
Battle Of The Cave.
BeachcomberShe wandered barefooted along sands
JulieI had a friend with golden hair
Melodious Monks (Sestina)In seventeen hundred and two
DaydreamsI stood in an avenue of tall slender trees
Days of YoreGather round while I tell you of stories
Down in the ValleyProtected by mountains
Dying of ShameThe old house was empty, cold and very still
Echos of the PastThe ruins of the castle stood cold and grey
Fantasy and Make-BelieveIn life, I feel, we need a little bit of fantasy and make-believe,
Festival dayWe moved to a small community
Going Into A PaintingThe other day I saw a painting
Hidden Valleythere is a hidden valley where few people go
HonestyWhen I was a nursing student many years ago
I Heard a VoiceI heard a vocie say quiet clearly and sure to me
In the Ruins of a CastleIn the ruins of a castle so old
Just A Cabin BoyHe was just a cabin boy in Nelson's mighty fleet
Like a Perfect DreamNestled ina nook by a gurgling stream
Little Miss Show OffShe looked like us all in school uniform,
Looking Through the WindowPlaced by the window in her wheelchair
From the HilltopI walked to the top of the hill overlooking the bay
Old HouseThe old house stood tucked away on the main street
Red RoverHe had red hair and a shaggy beard to match
Sad EyesThere was an p;dmanwho lived down the lane from us
Shelter From The StormThe travellers were tired with still a long way to go
Sweet Little GrannyGranny had done her shopping, hurrying to be home
The Baglady
The Ballad of the Beggar and his Blind Child
The Ballad of the Fair Maid.
The Ballad of Trapper JoeFourtimes a year he came into town to stock
The Ballad of the Sailors WifeThe year was eighteen hundred and ten
The Grave of Granny Greer
The Lighthouse KeeperEver since Matthew was twelve
The Old Lady Down the LaneLiving in a cottage
Wild Meg of the Woods. When I was just a tiny child
