Hector Gonzales Poems

This morning I was walking with my dog
I was tired as he drug me wanting to jog.

The coolness made my muscles and bones stiff and achy
...

Everyday I have to cross the field and dirt
Without my shoes I know it will hurt.

When it is dry and there is no dew
...

If I was on Jackson’s time
I wouldn’t have a dime.

He just sits in the chair
...

When someone special leaves this world we wonder why,
we hug and hold family and friends and try to say goodbye.

Our hearts are heavy and souls become empty
...
