Kathryn Tyler King Poems

When I arise, draw near me.

Holy Spirit come.
...

Such a lovely, handsome cat you are.
Over a decade you’ve been my pal.
...

The beauty that surrounds this small town

has brought artisans of various cultures.
...

Where did all my good friends go?

Some are here, others I don’t know.
...

As I look out the window to see the pink blossoms,
they express such beauty and purity and reality,
that I can’t help but thik how the Lord sums
all those flowers and weeds in such surety.
...

Chocolate, um.., chocolate, how good,
makes me think of how sweet you are.
I'd send you a box. I really should
since you live not close but too far.
...

I can’t help those around in need

Even if they’re tired and bleed.
...

My days were long and drawn away
Until I spied a young man one day.
He did smile with a twinkle and life
Which I know gave no sign of strife.
...

This is the day that the Lord has made.
Let us rejoice and be very glad in it.
Though our plans and dreams may fade,
and friends are far away, let’s sit.
...

I keep looking for my Valentine
I want to find someone just fine,
who will make me feel sublime.
I don’t want him to stand in line.
...
