Della Perry Poems

Ability to think is stolen away
Thoughts are in a mess, a muddle.
Calmness drowned in a red pool.
Commotion and chaos were friends.
...

A wolf lies in wait
Within everyone
Lurking, prowling,
Instincts alive, alert.
...

Mountains tower above
Sheer drops that terrify
All I want is to love
But life gets in the way.
...

Magical ladies are nowhere
Second best, hidden away.
Morning song,
Others sneak along.
...

The human race
Speculate, pro-create
Science, philosophize
Make.
...

Blossom is so dainty
Beautiful, tantalising
As it showers us within the garden.
The children dance in the shower
...

She is old now, frail, weak now,
Her mind occasionally flits
back to her hard, smart self
The selfish self that few cared for!
...

This world is creating monsters
Forming our children into the very thing we feared
Lurking below our beds.
The demons from the darkness are winning,
...

Her beauty was outstanding
Although somewhat pale, white
Inside as well as outwardly.
She had an air of release about her
...

I see the sadness,
I feel the pain,
Without any explanations
I empathize, understand.
...
