Strike My Heart

Love like rain
Words like wind
Strike my heart like lightning

You Nor I

You nor I 

 

 

Neither You nor I will live to see these wonderful times  

When the world will live without any crimes 

Neither you nor I will live to hear the victory cries 

Of freedom before one of us dies 

Neither you nor I will live to feel the keys to our chains 

Before we reveal the world our pains 

Neither you nor I will live to smell the air of our land 

When we all march southward hand in hand 

Neither you nor I will live to taste the cold bitter tears 

Of those who mourned our pains and or fears 

 -Katherine Leutsch

Revised From Original Poem Raindrops and Granite By Mike Scarcelli

Rain was falling on granite rocks
Cleft slabs frozen in winter
Thaw in spring with seasonal changes
A single drop of rain now seeps into tears
Then it flowed freely
Its puddles turned into seas

Evaporated into the sky
The storm swept it up
And carried it through rainbows and thunderstorms
Passing the lightning
And hurtled through the tornado
Tempest of Destruction

And it fell once more
Landed in the fields
Dew on oak leaves

Frayed

My heart is frayed
Hope to tie the ends together by those who betrayed

I Dreamt

I dreamt I built brick by brick a house
Where you and I and the whole world stayed thereabouts
I dreamt that our race, gender, and religion didn’t matter
And that our kids played with each other
I dreamt that you and I and the whole world ate
At a table filled with love, kindness, and no hate
I dreamt that you and zi and the whole world sat at a bench
Where we sat without no one pushed off without a defense

Yellow Daisies

Yellow daisies
As bright as the sun
Darker than my heart
