Liilia Talts Morrison Poems

Some things delight but have no root
and quickly are forgot
some stay a while in memory's store
and fade as oft as not
...

It's obvious for me to see
a poem is God's great gift to me
I sense the angels guiding me
as words soon flow so easily
...

Years of life without direction
little purpose, little faith
left me aimless and discouraged
till there seemed to be no hope
...

Start your morning with a song
hum it gently all day long
let the birds join in the choir
till the church bells call 'retire'
...

oday I saw beyond the stains
of dark, mold spattered walls
today I felt a change take place
in shabby downtown malls
...

Sitting by the fire
as the evening sighs
thoughts are slowly rising
of those vanished times
...

Now listen children dear
and hear what is to hear
about that Daddy Bear
who needed a good pair
...

There is a palace treasure
that vanished years ago
a hall with fabled panels
of golden yellow glow
...

In life I've traveled highways
built by the hand of man
but always fell and stumbled
again and yet again
...

I hear the hum of voices
from plains to highest hills
the sounds from farms and cities
in factories and mills
...
