Katherine Graven Poems

The desire of life is becoming pleasantly objectionable
As destiny takes satisfaction and dominates life’s passage
The fear of the unknown drama is mysteriously unfolding
Into a magical realm of an uncertain reality
...

Our first meeting was one of sweet surrender
It would be the only night I would want to remember
Marriage should have been our happiest day
But instead in bed that night you turned me away
...

With the sight in his eyes he sees the beauty
Multi-colors and light dancing in the breeze
Seductively desiring to portray
What his eyes can see
...

Expressing feelings through a closed off heart
Broken lies intended to tear worlds apart
True love was in the making of my own
Leaving me to live through my life all alone
...

Our Forefathers knew what they were doing
When they spent hours writing America’s freedoms
We celebrate with bombs bursting in air
Taking pride in the red, white, and blue that flows everywhere
...

You were my only Daddy
But I called you by your name
For I was your little shadow
And you were my shelter from the rain
...

Whispers behind Innocents back
Coming in like a silent attack
Ammunition shoots out when deceiving one speaks
Not understanding or caring what effect it will be
...

Baby Angel falling into the arms of parental love
Sent by the Holy Father from Heaven above
Painful wings unfolding searching for a soft place to land
Bring into existence my precious little man
...

Melodie

I remember lingering clouds
Words needing spoken, not allowed
...

dedicated to my Grandson
