Jeanne Trew Poems

Memories are beginning to cloud, as the years go by - so I will make new ones every day!

Although my spirit wishes to jump hurdles, swim the English Channel and travel the world; my body disagrees, as the years go by - so I will learn to enjoy new activities and give my body the respect it deserves.
...

The news; it came as such a shock.
Innocent child, will he live on?
We stare as the seconds tick away on the clock,
and we pray for the demon to be gone.
...

Human nature is a funny thing... selfish, at times.
Some, willing to take as much, as another is willing to give.
Fighting the urge to take, will allow your relationship to live!
...

I watch my closest friends find love
as I sit on my perch watching from above
and I wonder... is there someone for ME?
...

Every time you hear the sound of a singing bird, know I'm there with an encouraging word;

To lift your thoughts and lighten your load, to help you find your way, along life's curvy road.
...

They call them the GOLDEN YEARS?
And in what way?
Am I wealthy? Did my hair turn blonde?
No, it's definitely GRAY!
...

My heart aches with disappointment for the human race.
Why are we such a terrible disgrace?
Given the world on a silver platter...
What do we DO? What does it matter?
...

Gratitude, is felt deeply in the heart,
and must come from a place of true
understanding.
...

I knew what I felt wasn't right
The pain was deep and I struggled at
night.
Give this blood, take that test,
...

10.

I wonder if life will ever be the same
When we held one another without refrain
A handshake, a hug, are they things of the past?
Life altered, and it happened so fast.
...

The Best Poem Of Jeanne Trew

As The Years Go By

Memories are beginning to cloud, as the years go by - so I will make new ones every day!

Although my spirit wishes to jump hurdles, swim the English Channel and travel the world; my body disagrees, as the years go by - so I will learn to enjoy new activities and give my body the respect it deserves.

I have hair in all the wrong places and more blemishes than a teenager (they call them 'age spots') , as the years go by - that's why they make tweezers, razors and anti-aging creams.

I mourn the loss of close friends, as the years go by - which has given me a greater appreciation for love and life.

As the years go by, I am grateful for what I have rather than what I've lost.

Jeanne Trew Quotes

Instant gratification is not always a wise alternative to delayed gratification. Sometimes working harder or desiring something longer, makes the enjoyment of it, so much sweeter!
