Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

Why are the people angry?

'Comments made to them,
Were upsetting when expressed.'
...

At Sunrise and the dew witnessed,
Seems to slowly cease with a patient drifting...
From making that early morning appearance,
Mindsets of those young and clinging dwell...
...

I feel exhausted!
I feel accosted with a pushing of myself,
Beyond limits reached.
Beyond those limits I sought to seek,
...

A 'no...
Was a word I had heard,
So many times before.
...

Tired of keeping it,
Myself.
I'm seeking someone else,
To...
...

Frozen is the snow.
Melting it will go,
Away...
When Spring begins again.
...

All I have to do...
Is the work!
And those deeds critiqued,
Will speak for themselves...
...

What's been done...
Will always come back to be,
Left for another...
To be delivered,
...

I'm not that one to tell you,
Someone else you love...
Doesn't care.
...

No one,
Can turn a fool into a scholar.
With one on one instruction is refused.
And everything one can do has been done...
...
