Billy Ocean


I was painting an icon
On the base of a matchbox
When the Bishop’s wife passed me by
She was listening quietly to Billy Ocean
And was complaining sadly
About the laws of motion
Her husband’s faith
And my unseen devotion

 

This short poem now resides in a small plastic bag placed under a larger stone on the edge of the Brecon Beacons

There is no reward for finding it
