Leo Marks: A Code Poem For The French Resistance

  The life that I have is all that I have
  And the life that I have is yours.
  The love that I have of the life that I have
  Is yours and yours and yours.

  A sleep I shall have
  A rest I shall have,
  Yet death will be but a pause,
  For the peace of my years in the long green grass
  Will be yours and yours and yours.

Leo Marks: {We all need a centre}

We all need a centre
A core we can rely on
Our private Mount Zion
Which all can see
But none can spy on.

Leo Marks: {I searched the pages}

I searched the pages
Now blank
The drawers
Now empty
The pictures
Now faded
The rooms
Now rooms
And nothing more
But could not find my life

I found only wood
In the forest
Only water
In the sea
Only sand
On the beach
I could not find me.
