Melvina Germain Poems

What Is Love

Love is a strong affection, arising out of family or a blossomed
friendship. Love can be seen in the adoration of God, a benevolent concern for the betterment of mankind.

You decided to visit Grizzly territory.
You became the Grizzly’s story.
We’ve heard the cliché,
curiosity killed the cat.
...

Her palm filled with tears while
she calmly sat upon a cloud,
waiting patiently for St. Peter
to call her name out loud.
...

Walking Along The Beach In Nova Scotia
Walking barefoot in the sand
on a quiet Sunday morning
at peace with natures surroundings.
...

When death comes knocking and calls your name.
It’s inevitable, life will not be the same.
No amount of fighting will keep you on this earth.
...

Ancient
When rocks cry out
Bood stones show no color
Kings secret tombs tell old stories
...

You can't lay it on a slab for me
bold and harsh
I see it in the back of my mind
I hear it when the old story teller speaks
...

I wish to lay my burdens down,
walk away from this old town.
To a place so high above,
where I’ll find forever love.
