Thirty-five poems I have to date;
And what’s become so clear to me,
For the most hits to all of them
LOVE is a title that could be.
Don’t try to rhyme SOLDIER’S LAMENT,
Nor try explaining WHY at all.
Avoid CHAOS and MOTHER’S HOPE;
And HAPPINESS will hit the wall.
TOGETHER, QUESTIONS, MOTHER’S DREAM;
For OLDER FOLKS there’s been respect.
GOD also seems acceptable;
HEAVEN and TRUTH, have had effect.
In all poems, I’ve tried to make sense.
Apparently most like to ‘see’
Through words and phrases and the tone
The meaning that was meant to be.
In writing verse it’s been my goal
In all , emotion to impart.
I use my mind to choose the words
But write the poems from my heart.
