Jerry Abrahamson Poems

Oh, how I love it
When the snow starts to melt
In the first part of January
In the upper midwest
...

What do you do
When your schedules
Don't seem to work out
And you have to adjust
...

Do you think
That I should tell them
Who I really am
And what I really do
...

Doing arts and crafts
Is a fun way
To use up spare time
That I have every day
...

I have no great desire
On really being famous
I don't really want
To be in the limelight
...

Sometimes you have to
Take a step back
Because so many things
Have gone wrong today
...

I just want to try
DOing what is right
And to try to help
Everybody that you can
...

I've always tried to be
Someone who was eager to try
Something that was different
From what was done today
...

Oh boy, did I find out
About the generation gap
I thought things would be different
In the place I stay now
...

One of the hardest things for me
Is to lose the weight that I've gained
It seems so easy to put on
But you can't seem to maintain it
...
