my poems and other books


I am a writer and have self published 2 books which can be bought online at www.lulu.com/barryb here are a couple of my poems as a sample to give you an idea of my writing.-:
IMAGINE FEAR.
A horn sounds loud,
The horses proud,
You're chased through fields and hedges too,
Running for miles they're wanting you.

Imagine fear,
Imagine pain,
Puffing and panting again and again,
A call for help,
A yelp and cry,
And chased by men who want you to die.
The dogs draw close,
The horses too,
With men and women in red and blue,
Then a growl, snarl and bark,
A figure close so tall and dark.

It lashes out with a nasty bite,
You cower down with such a fright,
And then come more, more and more,
you're torn to bits on the forest floor,
What is to gain,
From cruelty and pain?

Imagine this being you,
Would you like it?
Imagine how the fox feels,
Ban fox hunting that's what i say!


MY NAME IS SEAN.
My name is sean and i'm in a chair,
Wherever i go most people stare,
Some people poke fun,
Some people just look,
It's part of my life,
In this chair i am stuck.

I'd like to laugh,
Along with some friends,
And discuss cars and clothes,
All the latest trends,
I'm not all that different,
Honest i'm not,
It's only a chair,
It's not like it's rot.

I have a mind of my own,
It's hard to beleive,
I have feelings too,
I also have red blood,
Yes just like you!

I may look different,
And may not talk well,
I can't help this,
It's like a bad spell.

I could be a friend,
And still have some fun,
Just talk to me!
Don't treat me dumb.

It really hurt,
When i heard you laughed,
It's at my expense,
I'm not totally daft.

My name is Sean,
And i have a life,
I'd like to be normal,
Have children and a wife,
I'm not that different am I?


These and 8 other poems have also been published by anchor books!
