Pasquale DiMeola Poems

Autumn leaves red ochre and sun golden
Gliding from the trees to a breeze
Nearer to a winter so embolden
Makes a shivering soul sneeze and wheeze
...

You with your incorrigible smile
Drawn into everything purely vile
As your spirits soar with the bats of hell
The vapors of evil enhance the smell
...

As brittle as a kitten
Pawing at a dandelion
Or maybe an old mule sitting
Until he's sleepily lying
...

It's never what I did expect
Your totality of neglect
Invisible as I might be
Explains why you stare straight through me
...

We have scales of human value
Weighing all the best parts
Discarding unappetizing souls
Enjoying the best of everything
...

May we overdose on love as such
Our hearts are pounding concord
Smitten with a romance inasmuch
Two souls can journey toward
...

Come fall we lie in Autumn leaves
Under the rambling gust that blows
It fans the fervour like arrow bows.
A scorching kiss my lips receives
...

To cleanse the mind of hatred's raging pain
Embedded like a common tick
Blood-letting out the bad so good remains
A crusted scab swelled up too quick
...

Only precious girls
Can give you melted pearls
When they are weeping woe
...

Come bring us all a clown or two
A joker or a jester
Too many faces looking blue
Allowing gloom to fester
...
