Wyn Roth's short poems.

Steam Boat

  • I wonder what the fishes think,
  • Of oily smoke and greasy stink?
  • I wonder what the boilers burn,
  • As they make the big wheel turn?
  • Does it feed on coal or wood?
  • Laying waste where trees once stood?
  • It speeds our travel to the west,
  • But is it really for the best?

A fantasy (pathfinder) bard, travelling on a Gnomish steam powered paddle boat. It is very, very experimental and, perhaps, the first of its kind …


Veronica

  • The woman they all call Veronica
  • Learned how to play the harmonica
  • Until one winter's day
  • She breathed the wrong way
  • And became a music phenomena.

A short poem, as we tried to work out what we knew about a woman called Veronica. It turned out that we knew nothing at all.


One for Claire

  • Doodle doodle doo,
  • The Princess lost her shoe.
  • Her Highness hopped,
  • The fiddler stopped,
  • Not knowing what to do.

Just a simple verse to amuse a child/woman who we were friends with.
