Lora Colon Poems

What joy when my heart took its virgin flight!
It soared with stars navigating the night;
Pledges of love were uttered with each breath,
Not once did I entertain thoughts of death
...

It's a bit late now to search for flowers,
The summer is in retreat;
Soon the cold north winds will blow,
Carpeting the ground with snow,
...

Do you want my love?
I'll send it to you,
On particles and waves of light;
It will cross the oceans, valleys and hills,
...

Your thoughts and desires held me hostage,
I struggled to break away,
But they refused to release their hold,
And the ransom was too high to pay
...

We forgive your indiscretions,
Me and the Lord above;
Some say that's just foolishness,
But I call it Love
...

What did I tell you about loving me -
I said it would just bring you pain;
But here you are, your heart in your hand,
Offering it to me once again
...

Today, I bought my favorite wine
And a red rose with a long stem;
Watching the young girls passing by,
I recall when I was one of them
...

At my mother's knee I learned right from wrong,
I learned life sent trials, just to make us strong

In some endeavors I learned I may fail,
...

Are you tired of your boring life
But unable to change the scene?
I have a plan, just stay with me
And I'll show you what I mean
...

Have you ever been in love,
Did the angels sing for you?
You could tread fire, but that heavenly choir
Is all you'd answer to
...
