Lora Colon Poems

Blithe and carefree as a wandering cloud
He drifted one day into my life;
How sweet were the hours Heaven allowed,
Tranquil - even though misery was rife
...

If you love me, it brings no joy,
But the tears come easily.....
Cascading waves leaving my eyes
For shores of uncertainty
...

I called out to Love,
I spoke its name,
With humility I begged,
And I cried in shame
...

Creator of this hapless globe,
Will you listen to my plea....
I have a lot of grievances
That need your sympathy
...

O, how I miss my darling boy,
The sad hours have begun,
His voice is silent, my heart cries,
One dark cloud has dimmed my sun
...

Tonight we're going to spend the night
In my garden..... just you and me,
We'll sit on the bench and count the stars....
A kiss for each one we see
...

Days grow longer, solstice is nigh,
Nature's rehearsing her part;
But a bitter cold hangs over me,
It's still winter in my heart
...

In quiet moments, that's when I hear Him
Telling me He's arranging everything;
"The love you are longing for will find you -
A swan will come, then look beneath its wing"
...

Tell me, who is that gypsy boy,
Why haven't I seen him before?
He comes by my window to sing each night
Sus lindas canciones de amor
...

Another day has come and gone,
Another sun has set,
Another wave has left the shore,
Now come the hours of regret
...
