Scarlett Treat Poems

The road of ease
is so lovely.
It is tempting to go that way
because it makes
...

The Militant Soldier Boy
Lies dying. In shame,
His body lies in disgrace,
Because he could no longer face
...

Sometime before my time,
There lived a man...
Full of adventure,
Who traveled the land.
...

Tomorrow
The sun
Will burn away
The mist

Walking Softly,
Quietly, so quietly,
Through the woodland,
Sparkling with raindrops,
...

IF I were six feet tall,
I wouldn't be short
At all!
But here I am,

We waited,
and waited,
and waited
for the long-haired idol
...

There are times
When dull, useless words
Can be polished - - -
Buffed until they shine
...

Uncompromisingly brilliant pictures
are companions caught in memory,
delicious together in harmony,
softened sepias and gentle pastels.
...

There are times
When the heart
Tells the hand
What to write,
