Carolyn Ford Witt Poems

-THE FEATHER ON MY PILLOW-

I saw a feather on my pillow
It was of the purest white.
...

--ACROSS THE RIVER-

She lived across the River
In the poorer part of town,
...

--THIS LAZY RIVER--

Here by this lazy River
Beneath the shadowed Tree,
...

-- *FLY WITH GOLDEN WINGS * --

Someday we'll fly with golden wings,
After we have left this Earth;
...

-BACK IN NINETEEN HUNDRED THREE-

There were camp meetings every summer
And they were quite a sight.

Here.. a kiss, a sweet caress
Making my heart pound
...

His darkened wings leave earthbound charms
...

As fear it spreads within.
...

- HEAVEN'S DOOR-

Life is one continuous battle
Never ending, never o're
