Long Reflectors Poems

Rear view mirror

Objects, objectively put, are  closer  
than they  appear. But it doesn’t say it all. 
With the fair signs that spewed  forth once turning to
a slew of  pre-twitter ...

My place in the universe

Pondering my place in the universe
I wondered,
am I really important?
does my life make a difference
in this earthly existence?

Or am I just a grain of sand
being trampled upon by imaginary
gigantic powers?

As I...

DARK ARE MY DAYS

My thoughts become perforated with pin prick holes, exuding darkness.
Darkness sucking some of the light, the life from my memories,
from my experiences - in doing so they rob me of the last...

Always a Star!
You’re a star in my night’s sky that’s brightened with years,
not because we’ve grown closer in distance (perhaps),
but with age, we are wiser, trust more in ourselves!
Though progenitors looked to the stars to...

Would that our love were constant as the Sun,
Who though He needs his daily rest too,
And slips under the cover of earth’s horizon
To find such bliss as He can without us
Always in his sight, still...

I can’t see a damn thing; it’s that time of night
The road is too dim, but the sunset’s too bright.

I’m driving by sounds, yes, I’m driving by feel.
In a couple of minutes, guess I’ll grab...

The Hi-ways and the By-ways
By Franklin Price
6/5/2016

The hi-ways and the bi-ways long before the Super-way,
Driving 'round the country different, here are memories of the day

The roads were mostly two lane, speeds were fast at fifty-five.
Had...

The red  bicycle he had seen earlier in the store
was the one he dreamed of, the one he adored
With handles that could go up or down
And a shiny bell, silvery and round

Not to mention...

Abundant Autumn


Cooling air with colouring redder skies
Fooling landscapes upon marram lies
Fuelling frosted with dewed sunrise
Ruling leaves falling from revver highs

Deciduous trees succus leaving nectars
Mellifluous winds creating rotor sectors
Ambiguous pigments in sexes of hectares
Conspicuous colours within...

I once stood alongside two Eagles pure graded in breast plated armor.
The one to my left I set free to love my innocent little white doves.
And the one to my right I dared to never...

The very first automobile that I ever owned,
Was a 1937 Ford sedan that was many times preowned!
I bought it when I was a junior in high school as I recall.
It would do about 55 miles...

I put you on a stand; some say it is a pedestal.

I appear before you; I am in awe of the work before me.

Sometimes life is but a flat tire; air is such a revitalizer!

We will build our "Mars Voyager Spaceship" on our Moon. 
this Spaceship can only be built on our moon, for weight, size soon,

The researchers say, wandering mind is sign of unhappiness, 
Should I conclude by writing that poets are unhappy people on earth? 
But without them world may not know what real happiness means, 
They are true...

If there were mirrors walking along with us at every step
              We would be trudging into the dungeons of our own ugly...

If and then only to remember
Forget not the lost lonely specters in gray ember
Passing by eerily, still passing by
Loose tendrils of humanity… fly away fly
You see me not in your beautiful haze
Skirt around; walk around...

Both liberation and bondage
The touch of love and acts savage
Sensed at the centreless fulcrum 
Where no mind-body battles rage

Our soul, in this here body prism
Once aligned with love, leaves no chasm
Nestled at God’s feet, bliss...
