Austin Alfano Poems

Fire has helped man survived,
since our beginning.
Thank God we are not deprived,
Though how we found it leaves our heads spinning.
...

My prayers go out to the people of Haiti.
All the sons, and daughters,
The moms, fathers, sisters and brothers.
I pray for you like no other.
...

Family is close.
They're the ones I love the most.
Nothing breaks our bond.
For each other we are very fond.
...

There is a pattern in my life.
It's not one you'd like to have.
It's passed down from generation,
I got it from my dad.
...

Why are we in war?
Is there anything it is good for?
If there is please tell me,
because in war life is the fee.
...

Mother Earth is everything.
We must protect her, and keep her health.
So far we have done a poor job,
and her pain can be felt.
...

That time of day,
when day is no longer,
the sky engulfed in darkness
the moon is again born.
...

When the wind blows I have failed
So upon my head it shall hail
For I don't deserve such a title
If I can't stop something so vital.
...

You may want to know why I love you
I cannot describe in words why I love you
My love for you is lit in my heart like a fire
You are a great person that is why I love you
...

Our government gives us a home
We take it for granted
While others continue to roam,
And for some reason always frantic
...
