David Harris Poems

I carry your photograph with me
no matter wherever I go.
I carry it in my shirt pocket
the one that is close to my heart
...

In the early morning stillness,
I sit on the beach of life.
Beyond the foreboding mountains
near the life giving watery shore.
...

The falling leaves of autumn
lay scattered where they fall
nurturing the land with goodness
before their end days call.
...

For my wife
On our forthcoming 37th Wedding Anniversary on the 12th of September.

With the summer closing fast upon us,
...

Soft is the wind
that blows through your hair.
Warm is the love,
we both share.
...

Let me stay a little while
Or until the morning dawn
And all the shadows are gone
...

When Vera and I first met,
a second marriage
was the last thing on her mind.
Her first husband had not long run off
...

I miss you every morning
now that you have gone.
I miss your sweet kisses
from your ruby red lips on mine
...

At times PH is plagued with problems
and new ones crop up everyday.
However, its appeal is irresistible
no matter what we say.
...

Life is filled with surprises
some are large, some are small,
and there are some surprises
that are never welcome at all.
...
