Dorothy (Alves) Holmes Poems

He was clean,
He was lean,
Cruising in his dream machine,
Popping M&M's
...

Listen,
Sincerity
Becomes Music,
Like a song found and repeated.
...

Remiss desire,
Waylaid,
Joined abandoned dreams.
Clutching at treacherous reflected visioning.
...

'Tis said you're wise
My fine-feathered, Golden-eyed friend
Thou art beautiful
...

Heart shaped tears tangle
In garden of bleeding hearts
Our love lies dying
...

Softly love's kisses
Wrapped in rainbows
Will somersault
In clouds of roses
...

Oh No!
Not again!
Where did that tear
Come from?
...

I hear the quiet pouring
from your golden sunrise
rejoicing in prayer
...

pink rose face to sky
halo of sunn's gentle sigh
oh, what a silent lullaby
...
