Dennisa Davidson Poems

There are no loosers, there are no winners
In wars that people wage
Our world is fast going up in smoke
We need to let in love’s rays of hope.
...

Life is a flower that blooms but once
From bud to blossom
Falling petals to bony seed
Then the flower is gone
...

Allen and his to-be-bride
He brings her home with joy and pride
For his mother she is a new daughter
For her father he is a new son
...

Oh Lord, in this one life that we live
Help us to love and to forgive

When words so cruel and unkindly spoken
...

Hey, watch that gent
His way things just went
Built his power, his ivory tower
She made his bed
...

A boy and a girl
So young, so in love...
Standing in the garden, holding hands
I love you, my love, he whispers
...

For the Pike River Miner Families

Oh God, when grief goes beyond words
A stricken sigh is all that can escape a stunned soul
...

The lights are down this Christmas
The stars refuse to shine
The angels seem to have flown away
As the bells they sadly chime
...

O Dear God,
I just wanted something better, just wanted something more
Thought I could go out there and get it
Cleverly maneuver and make it
...

Hey Johnny O,
With your true Little Mercy
Set our student hearts dreaming
Of living in and serving
...
