JAMES T. ADAIR Poems

Many times throughout each day
I try to fight the urge to daydream
I can feel you coming into my head
Think about a feeling you left me with
...

When I was young
and didn't know anything about love
I looked in the sky and saw a dove
A voice from above whispered in my ear
...

I wish you to stop by
but you don't
You say you will
but you won't
...

The impatiens have lost their pink
Have lost their lavender too, I think
Where did their beautiful colors go
Where did they run to, I wish to know
...

This morning brought a blessing
Unexpected was it's grace
That I first felt in my heart
and which radiated to my face
...

You're hot and cold
you turn on a dime
you do it often
you do it all the time
...

Take a rock and throw it up at the moon
all of life passes to soon
before we figure out we're dying
...

I imagine your love is more precious than gold
the sweetest love that's ever been told
A love that could never be sold
a love so bold it could never grow cold
...

She's in my heart forever
But I know I have to let her go
reminded by the first sign of Winter
Beautiful snowflake
...

Out across the field of corn
sits a scarecrow
his clothes tatterd and worn
on his face he wears a perpetual frown
...
