Below are some experiments in poetry written by me under the name T. Alexander de Carteret Milne … enjoy!
My thanks goes to Stephen Fry who managed to do something the beautiful Miss Welch (lovely legs) failed to do in my (All-Boys) Secondary School English classes, teach me how to attempt to write poetry properly with his book; The Ode Less Travelled: Unlocking The Poet Within.
The Rose
By T. Alexander de Carteret Milne – 11.12.2005
The Rose, the symbol making love for us
A thing of beautiful experience.
The love the Rose empowers within us
Has meaning throughout history as one
That drives a man to strive for perfection.
The Rose has meaning for men whose ambition
Is to become one with the universal
Mindset. The Cosmic Consciousness inherent
In every living thing – its force vibrating.

The Enlightenment
By T. Alexander de Carteret Milne – 29.01.2007
The sword, the cross the rose – the soul of man.
In war we know much hatred! Know yourself!
In peace we live forever knowing love.
Through love, forgiveness brings enlightenment.

The Cold Steel
By T. Alexander de Carteret Milne – 28.10.2007
Knives clashing, metal colliding; cold steel!
Bones creaking, tissue breaking; more cold steel.
Fingers dangling, cut limp; the blade now dropped.
His breath no more, prostrate. Now stopped this life.

The Illusion
By T. Alexander de Carteret Milne – 11.11.2007
The creation of the Son of God, so
Designed to imprison the souls of men.
The illusion so inspiring, still told!
Confusing? Touches guilt perhaps? But will
It from this, the creation of man’s
Living Soul, bring the Son of Man to us?
Not of a virgin, but through pure endless
Visions of love and eternal respect.
