On the streets,running wild
Fated to share a workhouse cot
Asked for a second helping from the pot-
A life of crime becoming his lot....

Who had the gift of love
Adopted three orphaned

Them under her tiny wings

Forget the cries of the heart.
They fade away in vain.
And the cries for people
forget them too.
They all come with manipulated hearts.
Without knowing it, they are orphaned....

I marvel at the caged bird as it sings

Having been orphaned from the use of it’s wings...

Upon a bed of petals,
The orphaned fairy slept,
And friendly woodland creatures
Were silent as they crept,
So careful not to wake her,
Recalling how she’d wept…

A watch is forever subservient

Poor kid wore clothes to school that always stunk

Said Plunk: 'What if your new parents were skunks?'...

So much lost…
so little gained
Prairies in judgment,
our destiny framed
So little gained
for what we lost
Spirits now orphaned
—tomorrow the cost

Orphaned Leaves
============================
gentle Wind, as evening gathers,
gathers up the orphaned Leaves,
leaves some tucked in between the Rocks...
rocks some to sleep beneath the Trees...

Like squeezing and gripping
a handful of sand
Your love dropped through
the crevices unrhymed
Defining our feelings
with each orphaned word
Lost in the random
