david lessard Poems

There is nothing like a friend,
to share, the heavy load;
There is nothing like a friend,
to share the open road.
...

Love called to you and I,
not at first sight,
but on a warm summer's night,
as we watched the sun sinking,
...

As far as I can see,
there's only love,
as far as I can tell,
there's only joy;
...

There isn't time enough to hold you closely,
Everytime I wish I could,
There isn't time enough to give you kisses,
Everytime I think I should.
...

I wish you health,
and love and laughter,
to cheer your weary heart,
and all good gifts that
...

I don't like the days,
when they don't begin with you -
I don't like the nights,
when your not by my side -
...

Love is not too high a cost-
Once obtained...it's never lost -
It's been known to save a life or two -
It's better than hard cash,
...

You were on a higher plane than me,
and so I climbed up from where I stood;
But you climbed higher still, you see,
but I never went higher, even though I could.
...

Who's to say, whether or not we live or die?
Is it the man with the gun, or the Lord, Most High?
Who decides, whether to kill or maim?
Who in the end, is the one to blame?
...

I saw a smile
on the face of the flowers
this morning,
as I stepped out the door
...
