Walterrean Salley Poems

Winter's nearing stealthily
With gray skies
And cooler temperatures.
He is heard
...

I'm thankful for the older hands
In many a way
More grateful than my soul can tell
Or my pen can say
...

Commitment is a six-ply cord,
Not easily broken.

It is the life blood of true friendship—
...

Met my niece and nephew
For the first time.
Five year old twins,
Adorable they are.
...

We're treading hallow ground
With angels all around
As grateful hearts are bowed
For blessings so endowed.
...

Nothing's like one's youth
Once we have become grown.

Yearning for the time
...

I'd heard lots about spinach
As if it were pure gold.
But still I did not like it
Till I was nearly old.
...

Now here we have the sweetest tale.
Nearing the end of life,
Residing at a nursing home…
A husband and his wife.
...

A frightened dog was stranded
Upon a frozen lake,
As a fireman risk his life
For the doggy's sake.
...
