David Green

David Green (Books) is the imprint under which I published booklets of my own poems. The original allocation of ISBN numbers is used up now, though. The 'Collected Poems' are now available as a pdf. The website is now what it has become, often more about music than books and not so often about poems. It will be about whatever suggests itself.

My Favourite Poem - Phil Green


In an unlikely coincidence that I certainly didn't see coming, my dad has chosen the same poet as me.

I'm guessing that since my father isn't known to be the most avid of poetry fans, his choice has something to do with the poem having steam trains in it but, you never know. Next time I'm visiting, if I find a copy of the Letter to Lord Byron left open on an armchair then I'll know that all these years we have been missing out on a shared interest.

Phil Green's choice of favourite poem is Night Mail by W.H. Auden.
