Tom Zart Poems

Christmas is coming and I'm all alone,
With no one to snuggle at night.
My wineglass is empty to help dull the desire
To kiss you by soft candlelight.
...

Our sons and daughters serve in harm's way
To defend our way of life.
Some are students, some grandparents
Many a husband or wife.
...

Darling I love you with all of my heart and soul
Much more than any of God's blessings on Earth.
It's hard to believe Heaven planned it this way
For your love for me is far beyond my worth.
...

DAVID AND GOLIATH, NOAH'S ARK & MIRACLES

David, the shepherd, a tender of sheep
Would pray to his God before he would sleep.
...

Where would I be without you dad
My hero of night and day
I'm so glad you love my mother
And think of us when you pray
...

TEARS

Tears are the raindrops of the soul
And there's one for all who die.
They are the silent words of grief
As they fall free from the eye.
...

GOD LOVES HIS SOLDIERS

Sometimes it's hard to protect what is right
Sometimes we're scorned as for others we fight.
...

My life overflows with happiness
As my favorite dreams come true.
My days and nights are magical
Because of everything you do.
...

Should tomorrow start without me
Remember I love you.
Looking down from up above
Seeing everything you do.
...

BASEBALL

A game called prison ball was enjoyed in France
while English boys played rounder in short pants.
