David Harris Poems

There was a tightwad tooth fairy
and Griselda was her name.
When you had your teeth out
and put them under the pillow
...

The warm glow of a single candle flame
beckons a weary stranger there
to the bosom of a warm fire in
from the nighttime's cold.
...

It’s that time of year for someone
when the birthday bells ring out.
Oh, yes JoAnn, my Lil sis,
it’s your birthday.
...

There is a wind of change
blowing in the air.
That might change
the tide of war,
...

Life is full of make believe,
dreams of earnest topping fame.
Gilded Lilies spring up everywhere
as if in some dark nightmare.
...

Love is a constant factor
in our daily lives
by the amount times
we use the word each day.
...

Wherever I go,
I carry your love with me
within a crumpled photograph
tucked in my wallet.
...

Whatever happened to
the car designers out there?
Does there mind go blank
when they are designing cars.
...

A lone piper played
on the opposite side of Loch Ness.
The music from his bagpipes
drifted through the morning mist
...

For my great friend Melvina Germain

Some things remain constant
within our ever-changing world.
