Journey's End

I had just received the message
I didn't have time to pack,
I was going on a journey,
And I was never coming back.

I was told not to worry
About what I'd take with me
I wouldn't need a suitcase
Of...

Secret Wish

The snow was gently falling,
Through the window she could see.
Would Christmas come again this year
With nothing beneath the tree.

Her family worked very hard
At all the jobs they had,
She didn't want to let then know
She was...

A Simple Little Tree

I remember when they chopped my down
And placed me in a truck,
They told me I'd be happy
And I was definitely in luck.

I was told I'd been chosen
To give some girls and boys,
A very Happy christmas,
And...

The Cafe

I noticed him across the room
In the cafe where I sat,
I knew I'd seen him many times
I was sure of that.

I sat there very quiet
I didn't want to stare,
I knew he was familiar
As I watched...

Upon the Hill

The roses smell so sweetly
Behind the picket fence
The grass is rich and green,
It gives off a fresh cut scent.

The lilacs are in full bloom
The veranda has been swept,
One glance the eye can see
How well the...

Behind the White Front Door

Every day I pass it by
This house of solid wood,
I would like to go inside,
If only that I could.

It has a large veranda
All across the front
And lovely dormer windows
Where the occupants look out.

Each time that...

Angel White

So you want to be an angel?
The good Lord said to me,
Do you think it will be easy
To be spiritual and free?

He said "I guess we'll try it"
So he sent me here to live,
He told...

Golden Arrow

He arrived with golden wings
And knocked upon my door
I couldn't wait to answer it
So I ran across the floor.

He asked if he could come inside
And spend a little time,
I offered him a cup of tea
But...

Tim

He would visit her everyday
His hair was neatly combed
A flannel shirt he always wore,
Whenever he left home.

Sometimes whe he would visit
She didn't have much to say,
But some days she would chatter on
He wanted to stay...

Sad Hearts: a Poem of Truth

She came to visit quite often
A girl much younger than me,
I was there when she was born
And gave a party when she turned three.

She was always at my house
As a teen I watched her weep

Without a Sound

Try to remember
When there was no despair,
Try to remember a time,
When we breathed the clean fresh air.

I'm sure there were a few years
Not that long ago,
When people were not starving
And the job market was not...

The Medicine Cabinet

The swollen eyes are from lack of sleep,
The shaking hands she hides.
She can't remember important dates
But oh, how she does try.

The hair that once was washed and curled
Has turned a dirty grey.
And if a friend...

Forgotten Name

He sat alone on a park bench
Keeping to himself,
Watching the frozen river
Wishing the snow would melt.

He used to be so famous
Powerful and rich
He always thought his golden years
Would come without a hitch.

He thought he was...

Golden Heart

In her hands she held it
This heart of solid gold,
She'd worn it every day
Even when she'd turn so old.

Her wrinkled little hands
Stroked the precious heart,
She'd loved the man who gave it
Had loved him from the...

Sincerely Yours

I loved you,
But yet I saw your pain,
Life had never taught you
To be arrogant, or vain.

You lived within your boundaries
Of your little town,
You never had the chance 
To take a look around.

Some so called friends...

Yesterday the Poem

Can you bring back yesterday
For just a little while,
I want to do it all again
And everyday I'd smile.

I don't think I realized
How lucky I was then,
I was blessed with intelligence
family, and many friends.

I could have...

The Vacant Smile

I spoke with her this morning
For just a little while,
Hoping for nothing more
Than the faint hint of a smile.

I watched her brush her greying hair
And apply cream upon her face,
She removed her silk pyjamas
Trimmed in...

Going Home

I want to visit my parent's home
That sits beside the river,
I want to sleep in that special room
Where the photos were framed in silver.

I want to sit in the kitchen
At that table made of oak,

I'M Not

My friend called from Arizona
Says it's pretty hot,
He sent me a little gift,
He's in Arizona, But I'm not.

My sister-in-law went to Europe
Told me to give it a thought,
Sent me a lovely postcard,
She's in Europe, but...

Fairies and Elves

I reached into my pocket
And pulled out a tiny pin
On the top there danced a fairy
And this is what she said:

I will help you in the bad times
And make sure you have good health,

Body Parts

Have you ever felt like this
You've given away your body parts,
A family member wants your soul
Your husband wants your heart.

A dear old friend stopped by today
And wants a small piece of your mind
Your cousin sent...

Lucky You

In your world of sunshine
Have you ever seen the rain,
From your ivory tower
Have you ever felt the pain.

As your driving in your cadillac
Did you see the rusted car,
Or the homeless on the street

A New Dance

So many gentle people
Full of love inside,
They don't speak our language
But they try to with their eyes.

Some may not have money
But they don't really care,
They're not vain in any way
It's their friendship that they share.
