Carolyn Ford Witt Poems

THE EMPTY CHAIR

Every Holiday, we're greeted
By that ever empty chair.
...

LIKE TEARS IN THE RAIN

A map of tangled hair
A dirt smudged face
...

- THE MODEL T-

My Daddy drove a Model T
With paint of shiney black,
...

- AT HEAVEN'S GATE-

A friend has lain
His head to rest
...

-NO TEARS IN HEAVEN-

There will be no tears in Heaven,
God has promised, no more pain,
...

BLESS YOU MY FRIEND

This prayer is ever going
For you my special friend
...

THE GRAY WOLF

The Gray Wolf standing in the snow
So proudly stakes his claim
...

God sent me an Angel


You sent an Angel to me
...

-THE IRISH WEDDING KNOT-

Have you ever seen a Wedding Knot
Carved from one piece of wood,
...

--FOSTER MOTHER--

Good morning, Little Sunshine,
As you awaken for the day.
...
