Jared Bradford Poems

I gave thanks for the food I ate today
To tell God how much I appreciate
Every blessing he gives me, every breath I take.
I gave three thanks for the love I had
...

So much stress
I feel it in the back of my neck
It's like my necks a tree
And a woodpeckers pecking it's peck
...

Too much to think
Of red wars

Not enough to think
...

Blue is what you feel when you're down
Blue is the music that gets people dancing in town
Blue is what you drink to quench your thirst
Blue is when you look up, and what you see first
...

The thing we see on t.v.
Is all they want you to see
If you want a close-up
Go to the front-lines with marines
...

There are good days
And then the bad
But i'm never sad, always glad
...

Sonnet-

Unbelievable is what the world is
Racism, terrorism, scarcity
...

It divided countries
And brought them together
It has raged hell
And made the light shine
...

Looking back on your life
Do you like what you see?
Or do you feel regret?
Wishing you lived differently
...

Wow, I couldn't believe it
Couldn't believe I believed you
I asked ' Is it only me? '
You said 'yeah baby, it's just you'
...
