Walterrean Salley Poems

Everything has a time
And a season.
Everything has purpose
And reason.
...

Love, joy, peace
And the harmony they bring.
Friendship and parenthood—
From which life springs.
...

It’s things that bring us
So much hype.
Things of every
Kind and type.
...

True gold is not metal
Extracted from the earth
Such can't give a life
What it's truly worth.
...

People are interesting
And unique.
They’re often studied
And critiqued.
...

Mustard, collard
Turnip greens too,
All are delicious
And good for you.
...

From horse and buggy
To Lamborghinis.
From bicycles
To Harley bikes.
...

Peace comes not
From the world.
Peace comes from
The heart.
...

A title is much like a hat,
Wear the one that really fits;
That which is too large, or small,
Takes away from it.
...

Savannah on the East Coast
(The little sleepy town
Of the Thirteen Colonies)
Is grown by leaps and bounds.
