Dorothy (Alves) Holmes Poems

A poem bubbling

Inside of me
...

Spring wears gray today
Twirling in a foggy mist,
but her underlying colors
of daffodil orange and yellow,
...

Oh silent death!
My poetry is buried with my love
And I am adrift!
...

Though you were never mine...any how.
Be gone!
Sculptor of dreams,
How wonderfully you tied
...

I tasted summer
On my lips, your kiss surely
Heaven sent sweetness
...

Spring,

A season open
...

Met a love coward
Masked in love's warm glow
Oh, he touched my heart with such tenderness
I dared not turn away
...

Spring dances and
Does carwheels
In the rain,
With such joy.
...

You are the one,
Who touched my life
With sunshine.
You took me dancing
...

So unfriendly
Sleet
Sheets
Sounds roaring
...
