The Early Not Very Good Poems
Author: Peter Goulding
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1291540571
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 170
Book Description
Peter Goulding has, for some reason known only to himself, decided to collate and collect many of his early attempts at comic verse. These 200 prime examples of his early work (you should see some of the dross that didn't make it into the book!)represent his 'immature' years (i.e. up to the age of 45)and have very little merit at all. Unsurprisingly, very very few of these have previously seen the light of day. Sadly for those who have not read the later poems, things don't get any better.

The arse end of the year
Author: Peter Goulding
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 0244061254
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 160
Book Description
A look at the season of Christmas and winter through the medium of light verse, 'The Arse End of the Year' chronicles the build up to the festive season, the solstice, the day itself and the post-Christmas slothfulness, together with aspects of the cold and dreary winter season so beloved by, well, not many people actually. From the reindeer shaped blips on the air traffic controllers' screen, to the disappearing cheese portions; from forgetting auld acquaintance to the difficulty of burying dead bodies in frosty weather, Peter Goulding gives us a uniquely personal insight into the season in his inimitable style, not that many people would want to imitate it.

Dining with Milton and Bunyan and other comic verse
Author: Peter Goulding
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 0244659826
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 164
Book Description
Peter Goulding's fourth, or maybe fifth, (who's counting?) book of comic verse again delves the murky depths of the poet's imagination. There are still plenty of poems about murdering his wife and disposing of her body but there are darker poems too - the proliferation of tomatoes on Jupiter, the birth of Princess Charlotte and his critiques of the counties of Tipperary and Offaly, to name but four. His mind, which, to be frank, would be put to much better use, learning a trade or simply vegetating, is again employed solving many of the world's problems in rhyming couplets, villanelles and other fiendish weapons of mass destruction. Comes with a cultural health warning.

The poems in this book tell an unfolding tale that charts the highs and lows of a remarkable season.
