David Harris Poems

Some outside signs make you wonder
whose brain was in reverse
when they thought them up.
I walked along a promenade there was a sign,
...

I received your invitation;
sorry I will not be there.
After loving you for so long,
it would be too much to bear.
...

Bought a parrot
from the corner shop,
the salesman told me
it would talk,
...

I started out long ago
with a handful of dreams,
but through the years,
every one of them vanished
...

There are times when we think
time rushes by too quick
and other times when
it just seems to drag along.
...

We often class ourselves
by the failures that we have made,
where we should look at
how we have succeeded
...

No matter how far away
you are from me,
always remember
our love was meant to be.
...

You never know how much you care
about someone
until they are not there,
then you realise
...

The light in your window
shines bright every night,
like a warm and welcoming
beacon light,
...

Freedom is something
we take at times for granted,
it is only when we have lost it
do we see how precious it is.
...
