Linda Ori Poems

I now reside within my soul,
And every soul, it seems -
How else to manifest this love
For every living thing?
...

If I could just reach out and grab
That elusive dream of all I seek
Yet with each grasp I cannot hold
It long enough to truly know
...

The black cape floated soundlessly into the room......
All eyes turned to admire the shapely beauty within -
Long black tresses flowing like liquid fire by candlelight,
An air of mystery surrounded her, emanated from her
...

Running scared
Through deserted countryside
Hiding beneath the trees, breath in ragged gasps -
In the dark heavens overhead, tiny 'stars'
...

This guy who's always there for me
The one pulling me up from the dregs
Placing a smile on my tearful visage
Making my day no matter how miserable
...

Mesmerized by moonlight
Such a lovely thought
Spinning webs of pure delight
With pen in hand I jot
...

I am WISDOM.................... though I search for knowledge
I am STRENGTH................ though I fear the unknown
...

Poems, like poets, have much to say -
They may describe a rainy day,
They may sing love songs light and gay
Or speak of deep despair;
...

Our paths had crossed so many times
With neither one aware
The future held a sweet surprise
A love beyond compare;
...

The journey is over, my work is done,
Gone are the days when I used to run
Searching for everything under the sun.....
I'm ready, please carry me home;
...
