Bri Mar Poems

My aim in life when growing up was to learn a trade,
A bricklayer or a plumber that would have me made,
I wanted all the trappings my earnings would then bring,
A lovely wife and children a home where I'd be king.
...

Some of us can live for millions of years,
We've watched as the world's rolled by,
Witnessed all of its hopes and fears,
Now we weep as we watch our Earth die.
...

As I sit here homeless do you really care?
What exactly is it you see,
Try looking deeper as you stop and stare,
There's a person inside, yes it's me.
...

My dad bought me a goldfish,
Of him I was really fond,
His jar was really far too small,
So my dad built me a pond.
...

Twenty three outings and he's still alive,
What's the secret that makes him thrive?
How the hell does he survive?
Only he can tell.
...

Why was the universe made so vast?
Is it true we are really alone?
When it was formed the rules were cast,
We must stay in our God given zone.
...

Another year passes,
The fighting rages,
As death amasses,
No-one engages.
...

Some cannot work,
But my God they try,
Then there's the jerk,
Who spits in your eye.
...

I saw a ghost the other day,
Be my host I heard it say,
What I love most is it loves to play,
My spirit's in full flow.
...

When my partner died,
I couldn't go on,
Life at times can be cruel,
Each day I cried,
...
