Linda Ori Poems

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;
...

The message you send
Heals my heart with empathy -
You're always my friend.
...

Christmas day is over
The gifts are all unwrapped,
My patience now is wearing thin,
My energy is sapped;
...

I thought I knew you
Long ago and far away
In another world.
