Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

Bound by material lust.
Clutched.
With a love to touch it.
And sits,
...

An intention to reveal,
Is not meant to conceal it.
Although,
Mentioned to have others believe...
...

If people really wanted,
Attention to get.
In these times we live.
They would treat others respectfully.
...

People will continue to select,
Image over substance.
With this done to expect content.
And evidence that proves,
...

For whatever the difference it makes.
Many seem to be awakening not to take,
The ease of using common sense for granted.
A painless process once chosen to avoid.
...

New ways to save,
Tattered and shattered traditional values.
When those who break laws and rules,
Sit in positions...
...

When did it end.
That feeling of love.
Beginning and revealed,
To expose and show...
...

It had not been too long ago,
When I accepted growing older and aging.
Clinging onto a youth.
Stubbornly refusing to let it go.
...

Faith and devotion kept,
Is never a wasted investment,
Of time each day to deposit.
Only those who know the benefits,
...

Those steps to take,
That seem most effective...
To achieve what is needed done.
Are often the ones,
...
