Christine Gries Poems

Gained a job
Lost some work

Reacquainted with a friend
...

I started the message
a thousand times
Deleting it with a sigh
was our love a lie?
...

Artists see things differently
We see
the good in people
the darkness in a moment
...

My hand on your heart
Your hand on mine
Your heart touching
my soul
...

In just a moment
You were gone
Like the wind
that tossed my hair
...

Richard brings home a worm for me
And says a monarch it will be
He is attached to a milkweed leaf
And soon he will weave his sheath
...

The Hue of Grief
Red, sharp, searing
my being
it's hot, bitter, salty taste,
...

Sun going down
Night and stars
Make themselves known
Another day over
...

We go teleporting through space
in this game, we play
torn between two worlds
...

Through the veil of time
& haze of space
Through the jumble of cable
& tangle of wires
...
