David Harris Poems

With silver wings strapped to my back,
I soared up into the reaches of the sky
to get closer to heaven,
where I hope to be one day.
...

Life doesn’t give second chances,
but rare occasions
it sometimes does.
When this happens,
...

Sort through any loft
and you will be surprised
at what you find.
Remnants of former lives
...

With loving words,
we coo and dove to one another
over the telephone line.
Blowing kisses to one another
...

Golden threads and silver needles
cannot mend this heart of mine
that has been broken
just one too many times.
...

Welcome to my world
filled with love and hilarity.
Welcome to my world
built for you and me.
...

We look at life through different angles
trying always to get the best shot.
Some times the camera lens is dirty
and a fuzzy picture is all you get.
...

It often makes me wonder
why people do the things they do,
trying to make your life
miserable if they can.
...

For JoAnn
Who in conversation inspired this little ditty.

This is the Ballad of ‘Memo’ Roy
...

After a week of summer sun
February returned to normal.
Grey skies to the horizon
and a light falling rain.
