Melvina Germain Poems

November fumed with poppies here,
remember Veterans everywhere.
Why O why must we wait so long
to give tribute in word and song.
...

When love comes softly and the rainbow cradles the open sea,
I look to the sky and find your face lovingly, looking at me.

When love comes softly and the whisper of the willow trees flow,
...

Ahh the blossoms wake in the morning light,
the faint aroma of roses grace the air.
You are a blessing to my eyes,
I touch you gently with my fingertips.
...

These words I write,
come from deep within my soul.
They come in the middle of the night,
a gift of God's console.
...

Opening my eyes at the break of day.
Looking beyond our window, far away.
Water draping the frosted glass,
brought back memories of our past.
...

Spare me the rhetoric of which you speak,
of high hopes, progress, and barren streets.
Take your buildings, your towers, your stores.
Place them where the sun shines no more.
...

Our family pet wasn't really considered a pet, we thought of
her as a family member. She was a beautiful white poodle full
of love. she was an elegant little lady and she knew it.
...

Take my hand and lead me away,
to a place where freedom reigns.
Where the valleys deep with love,
cry out, no more pain, no more pain.
...

Inner raging maniac
cowardly expressed
preying on the weak
impounding much duress
...
