Charles Hancock Poems

Once I knew the way back home
Restless hearts tend to roam
Like a discarded bottle in the ocean
Just going along with the motion
...

He fervidly kissed her goodnight
Under a luminous moon light
It was remarkably late
For only their second date
...

If I had an discarded Mason jar
For keepsakes that remind me of you
It would glow like the North Star
From all the things I'd compress into
...

There is a young lady with a old soul
Her virtues are something to extol
She'll smile and give you a wink
Even when the gab really does stink
...

We can't stop the time bandit
From snatching the sands of time
Like rain and wind on granite
Mother Nature's merciless crime
...

Hot summer night
Soft breeze blew
Full moon bright
...

It's so easy to remember
It's so hard to forget
Your sweet surrender
No remorse, no regret
...

Dreamed of your hot lips
but with empty arms
Need to come to grips,
you don't dig my charms
...

Listening to Jimmy croon Cheeseburger in Paradise
Enduring the blah winter months that I so despise
Musing on charcoal smells and watching smoke rise
...

We have a son, Samuel is his name
He has a twin, but they aren't the same

As a baby, I felt his name should be Taz
Hell in diapers, he was full of pizzazz
...
