David Whalen Poems

Reflections in an antique ornament
Of lights of green and reds
Of silver tinsel, candy canes
Distorted reflections of children’s heads
...

Of all the things
That my senses have given me
Of all the sensations I’ve had
Be they pleasure or pain
...

Last year says goodbye
A brand new one waltzes in
Makes one wonder…why? ?
.......................................................
...

My new years resolution
And this time
I’m gonna’ hold fast
...

Could be better to write more
And perhaps to post less?
And after writing more, be sure
To only post one’s best?
...

A promise is….

Something fated to be broken
A wave upon the shore
...

Just a few facts
that should make you want to cry…
Four thousand per cent markup
On each bottle of water you buy
