Rose Falcone Poems

the lightest touch from your hand
has sent me reeling, toppling, turning
this encounter was never planned
yet has me breathless and most yearning
...

What kind of lottery have we won?
When we are here having fun
War-torn countries at the end of a gun
Where the dying has just begun
...

I need not even ask
It is provided

I have no needs
...

The night is still and the moon is high
The crickets croak and the frogs they bleat
Fireflies sparkle here and there
As the lake shimmers in the moonlight
...

The mountain air is fresh and brisk
The lake shimmers in the sunshine
Waiting for you was worth the risk
This love a divine design
...

Waves crash upon the shore
Foamy crests intertwined

Clashes of Titans
...

Skin's hot to touch
Heart's on fire
Body's tingling
Cheeks are flushed
...

He walks by the house
in all its grandeur
every day.
The sign outside
...

Pain resides in this heart of mine,
Your pain, my pain, the world’s pain.
I carry it all.
Years have passed.
...

We stand at the plate of life
Curve balls come
We swing
We miss
...
