David Harris Poems

Faded love letters
Written from the heart
Pages faded yellow
While we’ve been apart
...

Everywhere I go strange things happen to me,
little adventures you might call them.
Some are funny, but none of them sad,
most makes you step back
...

A little cottage nestled in the hills,
its roof is thatched
and it windows carry Georgian squares.
In its garden pretty flowers grow;
...

Here it is autumn,
the leaves are turning
from green to gold and red.
As the days, get shorter
...

To some a seeker, to others a fool.
A rich man, a winner,
a poor man, a king.
A writer, a scholar,
...

The year was 1942 and the war in Europe
raged on relentlessly.
Each day men were killed
in battlefields far away.
...

I feel like talking
Telling everyone about you
About the love we have both found
And the rainbow across my heart
...

Under your feet they scurry
Nine hundred thousand or more
With head, thorax and abdomen
And legs of six or more
...

This comes with a Public Health Warning
as not suitable for children under the age of twenty 0ne.

“My dear Holmes this case is very puzzling as the young lady in question is not dead.”
...

Sometimes when I listen to a song,
a word or a line in the lyrics
will prompt a poem from me;
I will then sit with pen in hand
...
