Paul Begadon Poems

Taste Of Freedom

Concealed my brief trod road,

They Come From The Sky

And i'll play a part... more

Girl 5
Around the streets
And about the town,
When sweet black night
Had settled down,
Huddled,hooded down
An alleyway.
We'd stay and face the cold
So you wouldnt be alone,
We knew you wouldnt... more

Dont you ever forget me
Because i never forgot you.
I would have been there... more
