Best Ninette Poems

Grief

washes

over me

- a tsunami

of pain that soon ebbs.

Cleansed, I embrace

life with a 

dance of

Joy

True
friends are
so precious
like diamonds.
Always treasure them!

cry
in the 
privacy
of your sad thoughts
behind louvered blinds
till pain wanes…then
wipe away
your tears:
smile

love
can be
a gamble 
treading on sand
in uncharted land 
hoping to quench

Hope 
sparkled
brightly like
a ruby stone
once upon a time
until I learned
I had to
polish
faith

tale
from old
Slavic god
idol worshipped
sage  and  protector
season’s spirit
winds obey
chiming
toll

gusts
from gods
stab with blades
of  potent  breath
freezing  the  tundra
and stripping oaks
till summer’s
warm air

Cold
winds blow,
fall ends and
winter begins.
Hibernating bulbs
will softly sleep
until the 
next spring
thaw.

Dogs,
loyal
to a fault;
caring greatly
for their family.
Everyone loves
the furry,
friendly
dog.

Waves
kissing
tiny toes
splashing, cooling.
Ebbing and flowing
on golden sands
where children
love to
play.

We

are more

than lovers

we are soulmates,

you’re my missing half.

I’m part of you

and you are

part of

me.

faith

is blind

deaf and dumb

trusting that God

needs no defending

it does not ask

Him for proof

of His

love

"To die would be an awfully big adventure!" - J.M. Barrie, Peter Pan



Death
A grand
Adventure
God's gift to make
Each breath so precious
Life's sweet echo
Warm and dark
Like the
Womb.

the 
word "wind" 
looks as much 
like this act of 
nature as the sign, 
designating 
pronoun “I”, 
looks like 
me

Dogs

greet us

happily

wagging their tails.

How precious pets are!

I delight in

the warm purrs

round her eyes
masked by make up

her inner pain
she hides well

Mild 
drizzle
soaks on pane;
and hums gently
like  day’s cleansing rite
easing  breaths, tired:
heart  lifts  up
as  mist
floats.
