State of the Nation – A poem for today

01/15/2026 by Roy Sutton

Today, it is the state of the nation I have on my mind. My nation is the United Kingdom, and with that, we’re all frustrated. However, I suspect people in every nation feel like that most of the time.

Now, I like poetry, and I like trying to write poetry. So, I thought I’d express my feelings in the form of a poem.

Yes, I’ve got a long way to go before I’ll get anywhere near the great poets, of course. However, we’ve all got to start somewhere.

Anyway, if my words resonate with you, please feel free to share this poem.

I appreciate your support, dear reader. Thank you.

2 Poems for today to make you think

01/14/2026 by Roy Sutton

In this post, I am offering you two poems for today.

I have never been clever with words, dear reader, but I’ve always been impressed by people who are. In particular, I like poetry and writers who are clever with verse.

So naturally, I like having a go at writing poetry and seeing whether I can produce something half-decent.

So, these are two poems written recently. The first is my reaction to the present cult of what has become known as ‘cancel culture,’ and the second reflects an incident that actually happened to me while attempting to mow my lawn at home.

If you enjoy either of these poems, please feel free to share them. They are free for anyone to share, provided they are not used for commercial gain.

Marriage and its joys in the form of a poem

01/14/2026 by Roy Sutton

Once again, I’ve been trying to write poetry. On this occasion, I’ve been exploring the concept of marriage. A subject to which most of us are drawn at some point in our lives.

At this point, it might be worth quoting the great Scottish comedian, Billy Connolly:

“Marriage is a wonderful invention. Then again, so is a bicycle repair kit.”

Anyway, I hope you find my latest poetic offering appealing. And if my words do resonate with you, then please feel free to share this poem with your friends or on Pinterest.

I appreciate your support, dear reader. Thank you.

Graduation Poem – An alternative perspective

08/23/2025 by Roy Sutton

If you’ve landed on this page, dear reader, you might just be looking for a graduation poem.

I’ve written one for you, but perhaps not one you might expect.

Most graduation poems are a celebration of the moment, and there’s nothing wrong with that approach. It’s the culmination of years of hard work, after all.

However, in the modern age, it seems that many young people look back and wonder whether the burden of student debt was worth it in terms of the potential return on the money and time invested.

You can decide on the merits or otherwise of that argument, of course, but I thought it might be interesting to offer an alternative perspective. One that might be considered more realistic, possibly?

If you like it, feel free to share it on social media.
