David Harris Poems

In the shadows of twilight
my guest come alive
from the gloomy depths of shadows.
They slowly emerge to heighten
...

You’re lying on a sun kissed beach,
watching the shadows of palm trees
swaying back and forward
under a warm breeze.
...

No matter how clever
we think we are, there
is always someone
who is cleverer than us.
...

They say that behind
every line and wrinkle
there lays a story to be had there.
With all the wrinkles and crinkles
...

It stared like any journey
with expectations running high,
a two hours journey
from one point to another.
...

It climbs on thermals high
Hovers in air effortlessly bound
Looks down with ever watchful eye
At tiny specks on the ground
...

There are times when love goes bad
and there is no way
to repair the unrepairable.
You feel that giving is a sign of defeat.
...

Like water under the sun
evaporates into the air.
Friends evaporate away
under the toll of years.
...

What three words
emphasise Easter to all of us.
The three words we associate with it,
betrayal, crucifixion and resurrection.
...

There are days when you
feel very lazy
and don’t want to do
anything at all.
...
