Christine K. Trease Poems

Somewhere 'twixt the dusk and dawn,
entwined in checkerboard slumber,
the faeries chance to grant your dreams
gathered in joyful number.
...

Blessings sprinkled through the sky,
to be chosen by you and I.
It's the things you do, you see,
that bring the blessings back to thee.
...

Everyone is watching me
and they can see what I don't want seen.
Mirrored eyes run through my soul
and tell a tale I don't want told.
...

Resolute to make a resolution
Firm in conviction to convict

Committed to make a strong commitment
...

Wake and sleep collide like tides
crashing to the shore.
We must understand the night
and wonder nevermore.
...

To look at you is not enough
the moment requires a stare
and a stare cannot be a glancing one
it must breathe with consuming air.
...

Old glory waves proud in our country,
times changed forever more
as American hearts were filled with sorrow
from shore to glistening shore.
...

A trillion stars in heaven heaved a sigh of great relief
after being freed from masses that now left them incomplete
they glowed and shone their independence in the dark night sky
and beaming at their new-found fate shine forth for you and I
...

You wonder if I have a dream.
I have a dream come true.
My dreams became reality
The day I married you.
...

Farewell to golden windmills
We, fixated on the pond
Sometimes play at marriage
Nightly comfort found
...
