Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

I apologize.
But you have caught me,
At a most inconvenient time.
Now...
...

Gone with a meaning,
Is a hope to let go.
Gone with a meaning,
Are dreams.
...

When a love is given keep it,
On your mind.
All the time.
When a love is given keep it,
...

The ones who are best,
With a kept interest...
To produce a good show.
Without it known who they are.
...

One made to heat.
And not to do overnight.
May never recover,
From the wicked deeds of others.
...

One having an unexpected experience,
With a momentary dose of anger...
May just be the thing needed,
To beat and defeat a kept disbelief...
...

With values wished to relive,
As a treasure expected...
From one generation to the next.
Can not sustain to remain,
...

Preventative measures,
Put in place still will not stop...
Those testing barriers.
And when barriers like this,
...

Everyday.
Or whenever the convenience is made.
There are claims of new diseases,
Threatening to diminish a way of life.
...

Any-one. Or...
Any-thing.
Forcibly removed,
From a natural habitat.
...
