David Harris Poems

With trembling lips, she said goodbye
left me alone to cry
the old north wind blew at the door
to chill my heart for evermore.
...

In among the ashes
of your old love letters
the fragments of your
contemptuous love lay.
...

Weep not for me when I am gone,
weep not for me as life is never long.
Weep not for me as you must live
and be ever strong.
...

As the curtain is drawn each morning
to greet a brand new day
let, us look around us
at the children while they play.
...

Thank you for the life you gave up
just to see me through
and do not weep for me now that I am gone.
Go and lead the life you should have led
...

Why is it nearly always
the best ideas come
just before you go to bed
and if you do not write them down
...

There are times when you meet someone,
a stranger
and instantly you feel
comfortable in their company.
...

Everyone wants a part of you
no matter whom you are
and most want your money.
They plague you with emails, telephone calls
...

Bring back the good old Rock ‘n’ Roll
we used to dance to.
Bring back the good old Rock ‘n’ Roll
that we used to know.
...

Almost everyone has suffered abuse
in one form or another,
from bullying at school
to the worst kind from within their family.
