Pictures with Poems


As much as I enjoy photography I also like to dabble in the odd poem or rhyme. Last year I created some Photo Books and sold them to support a charity and for one of the images I created a short poem, so I thought maybe I can do a few more.  So on this page is a small collection of Pictures with Poems which I hope you will like; more may be added in the future.      You can also see some of my other poems on my website Verses and Rhymes by clicking  here 

THE FOREST OF DEAN

Picture
Wonderful, beautiful, Forest of Dean
So many trees in the Forest Of Dean
Oak, Birch, and Beech, are just some to be seen
Beauty abounds wherever you walk
Wonderful bird life from Blue Tits to Hawks
Find magic in the scowls of Puzzlewood
Or look down from Yat Rock the view is so good
Whatever the season it’s still lovely and green
The wonderful, beautiful Forest Of Dean

LANDSCAPES

Picture
The wonder of nature
When the vista is wide, so become your eyes
You take in the view with it's colours and hues
Trees tall and small make you look on in awe
At the river that's flowing or the sunlight that's glowing
Or the textures so clear whether distant or near
In the meadows and grass and through the mountain pass
The fluffy white clouds provide a cover and shroud
Producing a gentle haze to challenge your gaze
As you look to the skies the wonder of nature brings tears to your eyes 

SEASCAPES

Picture
Bring me back to here
The waves are gently lapping forming ripples in the sand
I look into the distance and see the silhouette of land
Blue skies are filled with storm clouds pierced by rays of sun
It's not long since the dawn did break, a new day has begun
The horizon mesmerises as I strain to see what's there
It's the beauty of this seascape which will bring me back to here.

STREET PHOTOGRAPHY

Picture
Moments captured decisively
It's a challenge, it's an art, it's definitely a skill
You need to work hard at it and have to have the will
It requires a lot of patience, sometimes bravery and luck
Particularly when a stranger wants to see the shot you took
To document an incident, a protest or event
And interpret that in images to illustrate what was meant
Whether on the move or discreetly placed you require a lot of stealth 

But perseverance will provide you with photographic wealth
Not necessarily financially but a portfolio thats full
Of moments captured decisively reflecting life that's never dull
