Dry leaves, now golden, toss and turn on
the midday’s tin roof. A confident
pigeon plays with the neighborhood cat.
These are . . .

Beyond the clouds
Sits a throne of silence
Where many thrive
To see a true illusion of life.

I wiped the crumbs from your lips,
Spooned another to them also,
Then wiped again and stroked your brow.
I held your hand in waves on pain,
Whispered I was here,
And wept . . .

Through the magic of scattered starlight
The births of cosmic nebulas reveal creations
A genesis creating a future of splendid wonder . . .

As Daddy reads the story of Jesus
and of what happened on the night when he was born.
Then he says a small gentle prayer.

I have scars you could see
Deep in my heart for you and me
My head would guide you by
My heart could but we could die
Far away you've gone
Here and now my pain flames still burn

A time of very long ago in another time and place
When my love was far from human
Today we call them demons, but they were not so then

Let's write a poem together came about because I'm a natural born teacher and I love to draw out the art and poetry inside people - it's there. Join us and write poetry - be part of something very special. We do this one line at a time, two-liners, maybe even a whole verse. It's a group effort, but I am the Editor. You have to trust me to select what goes with the poem we are writing - I will not always use a line you present, but I will try to.
