David Green

David Green (Books) is the imprint under which I publish booklets of my own poems, or did. The 'Collected Poems' are now available as a pdf. The website is now what it has become. It keeps me out of more trouble than it gets me into. I hope you find at least some of it worthwhile.

Wait for Me

Wait for Me

Suddenly the park is vast,
its distances like those between the stars.
The tiny bike is heavy

and designed more for safety than speed.
And Daddy has never looked so small,
so far away, and on his mobile phone.

It seems like now or never
or forever will take place on this machine.
Daddy. Stop a minute. Wait for me.
