I watched a child approach me, with a question on his mind I looked into his solemn face, and the smile I gave was kind He said to me, dear lady, please tell me, tell me true Why is it that you're clothed in black, never red or green or blue I stopped and thought... Continue Reading →
A Glimpse Within
I've always heard the eyes Are the windows to our soul But if you want a glimpse within Read poetry, then you'll know Everyone is different And the words they write reflect Everything that's in their heart And the things they can't forget Some use imagination To bring a point across But the root is...

Running Into Walls
My mind is plagued by frustration, always running into walls Cold brick is not a nice sensation and neither are hard falls It seems the harder I try to win, the more behind I stay Blind alleys I walk, will never end, reality's harsh in light of day Turn left, turn right, the choice is...

Am I Dreaming
Was it all a dream last night or did you hold me in your arms Did you gently wake me with the morning light, did you enchant me with your charms Were your sweet lips pressed softly to mine, your body warm as you lay by my side Is this happiness that I've chanced to... Continue Reading →
Pebbles
The rock was strong and sturdy, it's face craggy and pitted from the winds of time. The entire weight of the mountain rested upon this rock, day after day, night after night, yet the rock never murmured, never groaned. One day a tiny fissure appeared, but it was ignored.

Bittersweet Garden
No good byes, simply leaving on silent feet, with a silent voice, no echo. It would be kinder to let me witness the slamming gate, splintered wood, splintered dreams lying broken on cold earth beneath a sunless sky. Wandering, forever wandering through endless days and longer nights. Is anyone there? No sound but for the... Continue Reading →
Winter Corn
What scowl I see upon your face I'll take you to your pagan place And let you reap your winter's corn And eat the seed that you do scorn Behold the light, it has grown low Scarcely just a cinder glow Yet you still reach into the fire Your belly bitter with your ire Fan... Continue Reading →
Let Me Be A Child
Why must you always lean on me, I'm just a child after all I'm afraid that I'll tip over and I'm afraid I'll let you fall Why is it that you depend on me when I should depend on you For emotional well being, for warmth and comfort too Please let me be a child... Continue Reading →
