Philip Doolittle Poems

Happiness
Glad, cheerful
Laughing, playing, frolicking
Victories, holidays, funerals, losses
...

The Lord is my shepherd.
He leads me each day.
His staff, it corrects me
If ever I stray.
...

There was a young man from Japan
Who only knew how to make flan.
He said, “I just wish
That I had some fish
...

Now, I can still recall that day:
The sun was blue, the moon was gray,
And frozen lakes had all been burned
When those who never went returned.
...

One summer day I went for a swim.
The sunlight glistened off the lake.
My mind told me, “For goodness sake,
Go ahead and just jump in! ”
...

The Bible is the perfect Book for me.
Its truths have lasted through eternity.

The pages of this Book hold wealth untold:
...

The oyster and the starfish were walking hand in hand;
They were strolling by the seaside in tons and tons of sand.
The starfish said to the oyster, “My friend, I need to go.
My cousin, who is a clownfish, is putting on a show.”
