Walterrean Salley Poems

Elizabeth II, Head of State
And the Queen of the UK,
Gave her people hope and strength
To brave another day.
...

It often whistles
And sings a song
With eerie sounds
As it goes along
...

My dad was a working man
With never— ever—an idle hand.
And far from perfect as could be,
He believed in his family.
...

Folks greeting those they meet.
Children playing in the street.
People working hand in hand
For the better of the land.
...

The holidays are upon us;
Excitement's in the air.
Folks hustling and bustling;
The traditional holiday flair.
...

We go to school
So we can know.
We learn to drive
So we can go.
...

The gentle rain visits,
Softly pouring down,
Clearing the air
Of the pollen around.
...
