Dorothy (Alves) Holmes Poems

as fall day closes
a chill wraps around painted
woods, the moon keeps watch
...

Haiku Heading Home
CLOUDS EDGED IN SUNLIGHT
PAINTED THE TWILIGHT SKY blue,
GOLD, with PINK PATCHES
...

spring wears winter white
shivering on her first day
ah, deceitful spring!
...

sky, solemn ice blue
then invades an eagle high
winter winds whisper
...

Even in your darkest hour
Dig deep
I am waiting for your
New sunrise
...

It was December the 23rd
and Santa was packing his sleigh
saying to his reindeer, 'We've got
lots of traveling to do today, tomorrow
...

Last night love came knocking at my door,
Naked, blind, seeking solace, catching me unaware,
Seeking to invade my empty shell.
...

Snow bound solitude
Resurrecting the pain of
Your demise my love
...

If roses have thorns,
What then shall I bring my love?
Ah, a golden feast!
...
