Paula Glynn Poems

Memories of a stolen youth that I treasure,
With happiness that I cannot measure,
For everything happens for a reason,
And it all matters in the passing seasons,
...

I love my ruby red slippers, she says,
Let the white light guide you,
Towards a peaceful, exotic garden,
And find yourself a solution,
...

I don't need that sugar,
But I do need sweetness,
But a sweetness from a pure heart.
I need guidence from a true love,
...

Plastic Barbie,
How a little girl learns to be a woman,
Lipstick and powder to paint the face,
War paint the norm,
...

Her hair is spun pure gold,
Her pink dress is woven of silk,
Her eyes sparkle with delight,
And the moon shines at the start of the night.
...

A NASA spaceship travelling to Mars
With scientific studies from 1940
Humans wishing to explore the red planet
Its mysteries beyond NASA landing on the moon
...

That lucky, lucky day,
When those six numbers are chosen,
A life where Jennifer Lopez,
Can be a friend alongside the ordinary,
...

I have travelled far and wide,
I have seen the world, every conflict,
Every aggression, pride and every side,
I don't know who I agree with,
...

I look to the sky:
The sunshine blue sky,
And imagine the rain,
Falling like tears from the clouds,
...

I can only see red,
My soul long since dead,
Insects of many forms crawl on me,
Feeding on my fear like cenobites,
...
