Steve 'easy' Whitacre Poems

Lay down on the mountaintop,
Blissfully caressed most calm,
Mind in deepest of tranquillity,
Gentle breezes bring raptures,
...

Dreams come
My dreams flee
Drifting nothingness
Once more it's just me
...

Great Spirit,
give us hearts to understand;
Never to take from creation's beauty more than we give;
Never to destroy wantonly for the furtherance of greed;
...

All night the clock ticked, and outside a moon like day,
And I, in the ravages of sleep, head on a stranger's breast,
Shed tears, like a task not to be put away,
...

my pen poised,
above the blank page,
no words come,
for my friend
...

With agony I watch you slowly weaken,
My pain building as yours burns ever brighter,
If only I could aid, bring comfort to your deadly fight,
But alas, I can only watch as my loving friend do fade,
...

I dare see you, laying there, writhing in such torment,
My heart so bleeds as I feel your agonized soul,
Anger, frustration, a great need to know why,
The magic of you too soon to be lost,
...

A Women
Creates life,
Builds the family,
Teaches the children,
...

Waking through a dark misguided world,
Seems always up hill, ever a struggle to carry on,
Why always the difficult journey, this need to continue,
...
