Sandra Martyres Poems

No stars in the sky
Moon hidden by dark grey clouds
Heavens mourn quake victims
...

Walking in the Rain
Sharing an umbrella
A chance to get closer
And cling to each other
...

These are the poems I have read over the years
They gave me solace and stilled my tears
When my faith in human kind was shaken
When my ego seemed completely broken
...

A storm was brewing and I was lost in the woods
Dusty clothes brambles in my sandals
Matted hair I had lost my comb
A dirty face as the water had run out too
...

Purrfecting the art of purring
She does exactly that
our dear imaginative
and near perfect pet cat
...

Her Mother had told her that
Love was a game of give and take
With sometimes a bit of heartache
But her Mother did not mention that
...

A burning wick
A bright yellow flame
Flickering bright
A little candlestick
...
