Diverse Verse by Esmond Jones.
   
Welcome to my page's of Verse.
 
I'm from Swansea, South Wales, UK.
I've only turned my mind to the poetic art since April 1998 so don't expect the reincarnation of
Dylan Thomas!
But I hope you enjoy what I have to offer.

My Valley, My Love.
Coal tips half hidden by furnace smog
Stretch through me valley and pump my veins,
The only blood I've known.
Hanging my nostrils, the stench so sweet.

Black dust covers a clunp of daffodils -
Standing proud like colliers fresh up from pit.

Iris just walked past, carrying with her
The smell of the pickling factory, damn
Them onions are strong! They must be home produced.
My valley, my love.










 
Returning Home.
So long ago, I walked barefoot
Across her stretching body.
I loved the soft warmth of wet & dry,
Her silky touch against the balls of my feet
As I filled my lungs with her desirable air.
Returning now, after thirty years of seperation,
I see she has not changed a bit.
Tottering with some uncertainty
I get the feel of my love once more.
Quickly we are locked together
As I sink further into her wetness.
My body carrying more weight than before,
When I walked across Swansea's sandy shore.
