Jerry Abrahamson Poems

I really love it
When the relitives
Want to push you around
And make you stay in the background
...

Why don't people
Stop and think
About where I'm getting
THe ideas to write down
...

Where do people think that
I'm getting my ideas
About what to write about
And how to say it
...

Is this the only way
That you will be happy
Is that you run down everybody
And just talk about yourselves
...

Superbowl Sunday is very different
From every other Sunday
It is a day where you start out slow
And work your way up from there
...

Isn't it the way it is
That you have to watch everything
And don't dare to
Take your eyes off
...

Sometimes we have to
Do whatever works
For the situation at hand
And the time that it happens
...

There are a lot of people
Who have a hard time
At letting their emptions go
And that's a little sad
...

I think that
One of the best things
That my dad did
Was to make picture frames
...

One of the things
That a farmer learns to do
Is to build things
And my dad was very good at it
...
