Caryl Ramsdale Poems

Nightly they tuned the dial
To wonderful worlds of sound.
Broadcasts came through airwaves and
Captured everyone in town.
...

Today my mommy called me an angel,
God made angels 'cause my daddy said so;
God's angels peek out God's windows at me,
He made them beautiful. That's all I know.
...

Protect
People of peace
A race lives in hiding
Possessing magical powers
...

Apples
Sweet, tart
Sampling, saving, savoring
Crop, pickers, harvest, reapers
...

Admire, cherish, value, prize
All who are put in your care;
Broken hearts cry silently
Sending out petition prayers.
...

Downstream—
Clashing delights
Knockdown warrior tilts
On luscious, meadow greenery—
...

Perchance
Knightly mission
Thick forest aplenty
Untrodden wilderness journey
...
