Mary Nagy Poems

Her one friend got a Hummer.
The other a new Jeep.
I hate to tell you darling...
but, we are way too cheap!
...

For years we have gone hunting.
I've loved sitting next to him in his deer blind
or sitting quietly in my own.
...

If you could heal a thousand souls
with the words you write today
would you put your pen to test?
Would you know just what to say?
...

Is it too late to hide from you
or have you met my soul?
I wonder if I've told too much
to play a different role.
...

I adore you….
For the pleasure
and the treasure
that can’t be measured.
...

You're that extra little something
that can make me feel so good.
You're that voice that often answers
when ''I wonder if I should....''
...

I'd like to tie a tourniquet
around your wounded heart
and watch until the blood
stops dripping
...

That's it!
No more excuses!
I'm laying down some rules!
Just so you don't misunderstand...
...

Searching through the attic
I was completely caught off guard
when the sudden flood of memories
were found inside a card.
...

You think I live in shadows
so you stay out in the light.
You fear that I can hear you.
Oh yes, this time you're right.
...
