Raymond Farrell Poems

Today
The afternoon
Has become dreary and overcast
And rain has begun to fall
...

I remember sitting on the sofa
Watching my dog sleeping
Stretched out on the nearby rug
Suddenly his legs would twitch
...

There are over one billion people
Living in slums in today's world
Trying to get enough to eat
Millions of children are hurled
...

Setting aside
The question of merit
Or lack thereof
Let us all sing
...

You will never be able
to destroy a culture
until you learn how
to use humor effectively
...

this emperor
does not need
another award
he needs
...

What people write on a page
Is often a diversion
A lot of wishful thinking
But how we act
...

To go to a building
With some sort
Of religious symbol
On it and spend time
...
