Dorothy (Alves) Holmes Poems

The water captures
Blue sky and colors of trees
Time to be happy
...

The sun burst forth
Like a musical note from
The keys of a jazz piano
...

A patch of heaven
Pale waters and quiet dreams
Edged in blue and green
...

So, here I am again,
Cutting a path through
Your jumbled words,
Trying mightedly to
...

Did you smile today
Look around now is your chance
Hop skip jump smile laugh
...

Day of tranquil bliss
Waterfall and golden field
Thaws my frozen heart
...

Silhouettes of trees
Against pink petticoat sky
In blue and white lace
...

Evening shadows
Gives solace to young lovers
The old people weep
...
