David Harris Poems

In a bar, a lonely person sits
trying to drink their troubles away.
Some are there for lost loves
others for the loss of someone
...

This table is reserved an invitation for two,
only one sits alone and the other chair is bare.
He waits and waits as the hours creep through.
Stares at the empty space and wonders where are you.
...

Surrounded by a million words
the lovers with pen in hand
begin to compose their letters
to their love ones in far off lands.
...

For JoAnn and Meggie
My adopted sisters and partners in poems

When you take partners
...

The fingers of loneliness
can sometimes touch the warmest heart
making it feel isolated
when no one is around.
...

Sitting under the lulu tree
nothing makes sense at all.
The world feels as if it’s upside down
and any minute you are going to fall off.
...

The sun brought out its colouring book
and painted the landscape
as far as the eyes could see.
All the colours of the rainbow
...

Sometimes we have to put
a perspective on our lives
and separate the dreams from reality.
Stop living in a dream world
...

You colour my dreams
with happiness
whenever you are around.
You make my life beautiful
...

May the bells of joy
ring forever through your lives
from this day forward.
May each day be filled
...
