Charles M Moore Poems

Her dreams came from a luxury
enamelled in her heart
like diamonds spread in front of me
each one a work of art
...

The old Woolworths store
was looking quite bleak
with its curved wooden windows
and slush in the street
...

I felt her presence
like blood in my veins
her image coursed through me
resisting restraint
...

She was so happy
she met someone kind
for cruelty was something
that played on her mind
...

In another constellation
live another you and I
happy to be with one another
so in love and so alive
...

There was a girl
who said that she'd hold me
would love and behold me
way back in my youth
...

Time will tell
I've heard it say
time and time again
and time is a great healer
...

Benjamin was full of sorrow
Benjamin was full of woe
for Benjamin had done the dirty
on his long term best friend Joe
...

Jungle JIm was in the shallows
washing out some dirty plates
he came down from his jungle palace
in a tree hut by the lake
...
