Christopher Forrister Poems

A hint of sweetness lingering wafts upon the breeze
Dewdrops gleam like diamonds on the tips of sunlit leaves

Petals reach out for the sun behold God's majesty
...

I feel it in your eyes. The finality of fate.
You fill me with your smile. The joys of life.
Now I know your forgiving grace. I hear the masters' call.
Will I follow? Will I go? When everything is you.
...

And the moonlight carries the echoes
the face outshines the stars
from the faintest sight of heaven
to the red light shine of mars
...

So let me by
let me go
and send me on my way
Let me sigh
...

The light that shines to brighten
the darkest night of all
glinting silver bullets
all around me fall
...

(man)
All so quick I never knew
That she would call me out
Never see, unguided you
...

I sit alone forgotten place
just what I see, I can't erase
memories back where I belong
take me back when I was strong
...

The tattered page turns...
blank as the silence before the coming storm
The pen is raised and another chapter unfolds..
Look now upon a scene so real
...

One gentle caress, the lover's touch
the quiver of a single string rings in the heart
So let it be
They dance upon pavement of light and darkness
...

The breeze whispers softly from the windows
whispers of things that can be
Desperately clinging, words left unsaid
two souls for one eye that can see
...
