chris dawson Poems

Long she shared that room that night,
that long and lonely night,
with nought to aid or comfort her,
no thoughts to serve her plight.
...

Aloysious Higgenbotham
Had a troubled time at school
Ridiculed ridiculously
He learned to play the fool
...

On my knees before you,
I look up to see your smile,
Your shadow casting over me,
which I've needed for a while,
...

And in the morning I will be there willingly,
to hold your hand and lie there by your side.
And, although the pain it may be killing me.
for you my suffering I will hide
...

Two girls on the telephone

Resting on drawn up knees
...

No greater inspiration than..

Love can fire poetic man
...

Bug sat on the window cill

Where do you go at night
...

In the labyrinth that lies

Within that restless mind
...

I joy to watch the ragged crow

Who soars betweens the gusts as though
...

Expectantly I watched it,

caressed it as it grew,
...
