Rick Elpers Poems

Digs deep the aura of the quiet
Changes taking place
Not painful just below suffering
...

I watch the world
And hear it's cry
That others also see it
Have opinions agree or not
...

Thankful gratitude
Even without feeling
Is necessary to my soul
...

The weary have no response
To the the thrashing of love
As it is pounded in the heart
...

Dining with an angel
I was taken by beauty
Hardly noticing the food
...

Tonight I dined with an angel
Her voice like ambrosia
Filled with soothing comfort
My lonely heart
...

Ohh the air
Equine are near
Fragrant evening
Crisp cool autumn
...

Maybe if I fell from the sky
The pain would be acceptable
Maybe if I'd been run over
I'd be still able to walk
...

Life is boring
Without another mind
Giving suggestion
For endeavor to stimulate
...
