Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

Whatever you can not find,
In my heart
To remind you of another!
You have yet to discover me.
...

The way You fulfill my needs...
I witness.
Those doubting You,
And insist You do not exist...
...

Money can't buy happiness?
I'll be damn...
It's in the wrong hands!
You give yours to me.
...

Sometimes I do admit...
That I will soon be 61!
Both stunned and appreciative,
What God has done.
...

Stretch your wings.
You can,
If you want to make it.
...

Yes you can,
Stand!
You're human.
And demand...
...

Relying on me to have compassion?
Perhaps with a dash of empathy...
Garnished with medallions of sympathy.
And served potluck on a buffet of love?
...

Deep dished...
And sometimes left frosted,
After cooling down.
From a temperature baked,
...

Your cookies sought,
Does not release the thought of nookie!
The moment I feel the sweetened heat,
Of your oven...
...
