Francis Duggan Poems

A down to earth fellow the German Zig
His baldness he does not cover with a wig
Of pride and it's side affects he is quite free
What he truly is he appears for to be
...

How many more lies has he told today
The tweeting President of the U S of A
With him one lie leads to another previous lies to disguise
And it does seem with him he believes his own lies
...

She spreads happiness even walking the street
I always finds Helen a joy for to meet
The mother of identical twin five year old daughters Jenny and Sue
To her higher self Helen remains ever true
...

If you believe everything you do hear and see
You are far more trusting than most seem to be
But eventually you will become more selective with your trust
When you come to realize not everybody is honest and just
...

I am one of those who writes rhymes every day
And though some have advised me for to give it away
Since in rhyming for me there is no money and little fame
It is something i do enjoy doing just the same
...

The happy person most of others wish to know
And his or her friends in numbers do grow
They have what is known as the bright inner glow
The warmth in the sunshine it does melt the snow
...

On the hill of Calvary nailed to a timber cross he died
By his own people he was crucified
He was a young man then only thirty three
His life and death it gave rise to Christianity
...

In some Countries where the white flower of peace has not bloomed for years
Many people only know of death, suffering and tears
In wars over religion, land and race and cultural and tribal wars as well
And sadly it is always the good who live and die in earthly hell
...

Up to the cloud World of the blue and gray sky
The larks with the sun on their brown wings do sing as they fly
On the calm of the evening of a nice August day
The memory of such beautiful scenery a lifetime to stay
...

For to make the Human World better to live in with yourself you begin
For the power to do good only comes from within
The power to do good or evil is in every individual human mind
The Human World is in need of far more of the compassionate and kind
...
