Dorothy (Alves) Holmes Poems

Pensive, empty faces
Young and old
Keeping idle chatter
Above the noise of squirming, squealing babies...
...

Your sweet faces hide
Under umbrellas so bright
From spring's rainy days
...

It was grand,
I watched the eyes
Of children sparkle again.
The adults segregated themselves,
...

'S' curved waterfall
Jet spills in lavish display
Swallowed by river
...

An eye on the world
Sun in the evening sky
Warm wild beautiful
...

Golden dandelion
Blows kisses to wind's wild song
Sunbeams are jealous
...

Beauty of sunset
Radiant hues of fire
Purple clouds roam free
...

sunset explosion
reminiscent of your smile
sparkling gold diamond
...

see beauty in strength
giant of creation stands still
sans hunters sans fear
...

The dancing has stopped
Icy fingers of winter
Cling like sorrow's tears
...
