David Harris Poems

If everyone held out
an olive branch
to everyone,
maybe peace at last
...

Christmas can be a lonely time
whether you are young or old.
I remember growing up
how lonely it could be at times.
...

All my life I’ve always worried
what others thought of me.
When I was young, I was self-conscious
about the way I looked
...

Some roads are long and weary
with plenty of troubles to get through;
sometimes it seems there is no end in sight.
Our self-esteem is failing
...

Each day we cross
the bridges of uncertainty
never knowing what
we might meet when we get there,
...

A reflection of a lonely life
is one that is sealed in silence
within desperate calls
that go unheard by anyone.
...

In a candle lit room
with an open fires glow,
you sit arm in arm
passing the evening through.
...

When the night wind chills your heart
when you are away from home,
you wish you were back there
tucked up in your warm bed
...

I am not a rude or ignorant man,
but there are some things,
that I will not do.
Unfortunately, I do not like
...

How many times have we heard it said
I told you so
when you do something wrong.
It is as if they are some kind of genius,
...
