This is part two to my first ever poetry book published by Amazon a few years ago.
People
short people,
TALL people,
Skinny people,
F-A-T people.
Obnoxious people,
Quiet people,
All kinds of people.
Different accents,
Different dialects,
Different languages,
Different cultures.
People make up the
world with all the many
differences they have.
Where would this world
be without all the different
people.
------------------
An Autumn Day
Hot, warm, cold
Always different
Always giving you
a hint of what you
hold inside yourself.
Sunny days you feel
almost as a child.
Cloudy, gray days...
cozy inside the house.
Leaves of colors
swirling down in front
of the windows
showing off a day of autumn
will that will always be
remembered for some
reason no matter how little
it seemed.
-----------------------
Golden Tree
Strong as can be
waving its' powers
when the wind blows.
Sprinkling down
wishes.
Bright slashes of
sunlight shining
through.
Saying you are
right in what you
are doing.
Under this tree you
feel affirmed and
confirmed to your
own understanding.
---------------------------
The World
Such a large place, little
covered by land, a lot
covered by water, but yet
the world seems small.
Like the song, 'It's a Small
World'; but so large so
any different cultures,
different people.
They say all people started out
the same way, then
why are people so different.
People are people.
The world and beyond
just waiting to be really
discovered by whomever wants
to be discovered.
-------------------------------------
Dogs
Dogs are my favorite animals
in the whole, wide world,
nothing can top them in the
animal world.
All I have to do is look at one
and it seems that me and the
dog become one in the same.
Every dog that sees me wants
me to play with them it seems.
Dogs are always there
to cheer me up, especially
when the large dogs act like
puppies and the puppies want
cuddled.
As the old saying goes,
"A dog is man's best friend."
-------------------------------
The Wind
The way it blows is always
different.
There are light breezes,
calm winds,
gusts,
hurricanes,
tornadoes,
cyclones,
dust storms,
gales;
Any kind of wind
time during anytime of the
year.
Wind is so unpredictable that
you will never be able to
catch or see it in your hand.
The wind is always there
around you, but you can not
even see it or touch it.
---------------------------
Campfires
Singsongs,
Memory provoking;
flames glowing orange and yellow
changing to blue and green.
Sparks fly up to the sky;
Ash falls to the ground.
Dreams to be born.
Warm turning red;
Togetherness
Family wishes and Just
fun to be around-
Campfires.
--------------------------
Going Places
Going places may mean to you-
just going to visit relatives or
friends or
just going shopping.
Going places to me means
going to places far and near.
Like to think about
going to different towns, villages,
and countries.
But...
When I go to different places
it's all in my imagination.
You can go anywhere in the world,
if you just lay down close your eyes
and think where would I like to go.
It only takes a little imagination to go
places anywhere and everywhere.
---------------------------
The Globe
Big, round, different
colors up close;
blue, green, and white
Far away.
White, black, yellow,
Tan, brown, red,
all people-
A global world.
Made up of all the colors
far away and up close.
Worldliness
---------------------------
Haiku
One word,
Two words,
Three words;
Thoughts,
Phrase,
Poetry.
