Edwina Reizer Poems

Born with a legacy he had to fulfill
his life was constantly marching uphill.
Until he could reach the mountain top,
he realized this was something he never could stop.
...

Fire, Fire
in hell do they burn?
Fire, Fire
here's my concern.
...

London Bridge is falling down
is a game we used to play.
I never thought that the London Bridge
would be bought and taken away.
...

The glorious days of youth don't last.
We play. We laugh and when it's passed
we wonder why it slipped away?
And when was that, on which day?
...

When all the things I've loved have gone
and escaped into the night.
I, myself will leave this place
and step into the light.
...

I don’t sleep too well anymore.
I’m usually awake in the morning by 4: 00
I look at the clock and say “Oh no! ”
Should I stay in bed and lie awake
...

There's a place where you will always be
in my memory.
And all the days I get to live
I will find you there.
...

Make me feel the way you used to
when you loved me so.
Take me back to all those times
you hated to see me go.
...

Do as you do,
not as I've done
said the father
to his son.
...

Farewell my love.
I must leave thee now.
I must not see your anxious brow.
So I leave you quietly in the night
...
