Lloyd Savage Poems

I want a rose
That will not die,
A rose of love to last!
...

Like doves that coo
And words that woo,
And so I get close to you;
One heart to another
...

Terry Lynn Hefner we still love you;
Your mom feels sad she was not better to you;
And we still are waiting for you to be found
After 27 years where were you bound?
...

Please do not awaken me
I'm having a good dream
And it is about us.
We are together,
...

Just a little tea set
Is all that we have left,
Since they came
And took her things
...

Patches cover up the holes
Yet patches also mend;
Old worn out rags
Which once held tags
...

Tell me love where grows
The finest of the rose;
Is it somewhere within thine heart
Or hidden away disclosed?
...

Like a sweet rose I picked you
from among the thorns,
where some vines and hedges grew
hiding from life's storms.
...

There was a man who couldn't command
A general of sorts;
He had the men, He had the guns
He just couldn't reach their hearts.
...

Diamonds, riches or pearls
What will it be?
Will you choose these
Over me?
...
