Leonard Dabydeen Poems

Fruits
mangoes
and guavas
cashews, jamoons
...

Fruits
I eat
seasonal
growing right here
...

Foods
I eat
are enough
to satisfy
...

When the spirit is so high to lift mind
over body, to surmount challenges
tethered in iron-clad riveted bind,
be so embrace Herculean stances.
...

Our own world

was rich in silver and gold
...

If so much in faith in God we trust
our love to share forever we must
lift our spirits in outreach so high
sifting away the rubbles to see the sky
...

A little child wants to grow up

to become a man
...

Wings to fly
where man has not gone before
where angels gather thoughts
reading biographies and sifting
...

this journey of hope
where darkness
is full of dreams
and light brings joy
...
