Peter S. Quinn Poems

The night is now passing by
Every footstep it carries on
Onto the dark of drifting sky
Until its illusions are done
...

Let romance be romance
Every dark night be morning
And love our 2nd chance
In love's ever turning
...

I am like the breeze on the ocean waves
Drinking from the breasts of the afar deep
Flowers from the glistening morning weep
And each of its longing that daybreak craves
...

Weave me a summer air
Oh sully autumn breeze
Give me the blossoms there
Before the ground will freeze
...

A delightful thought
Because of its pearly glow
Always with winter is caught
Of icily frosty snow
...

Your love to all, is your greenest of song,
Nursing on as a mother - caring for all;
Opportunity and a function call,
Giving knowledge of what is right and wrong.
...

Engaging hands of earth - you touch us still
Around and round in every transparent dream
Each bleaching falling glisten in quietness seem
Dear sweet autumn that my yearnings fulfill
...

Can you feel it?
Step by step how it goes
All is coming around again
Like the wind that blows
...

I am happy because there's sun,
I see the winter's done;
And all frosty is out of the earth,
The green has now a new birth.
...

Art is nothing but hardship and struggles
The wound of my flesh and with its jagged blade
Fists of my spirit and its hard juggles
Earth to earth in its clay formative made
...
