David Harris Poems

Have you ever had that feeling
when you go somewhere
you’ve never been before?
That everything seems familiar,
...

Just beyond the heartaches,
there is a new beginning somewhere.
As one door closes
another opens elsewhere.
...

There are many mysteries in my life
for which an answer for I do not possess.

Why after an almost a lifetime
...

Translucent colours whirl around my mind
forming small pictures that I turn into rhyme.
Some can be funny and others sad,
some speak of growing love
...

There are days of great frustration
when you want to do something, but can’t.
The more you try the worse it gets,
not giving up you keep trying repeatedly
...

The anticipation was killing me.
I was pacing around outside
like an agitated lion waiting.
I had spoken to her an hour before
...

When the world goes topsy-turvy,
our mind goes in a spin,
we turn to the people that we call
our best friends.
...

Candle
For the light.

Wine
...

Watch the contents of the bottle go down the sink.
Oh, how I want a drink.
I must resist, I must resist.
The smell of alcohol in the air.
...

With eager eyes they look at the toys.
Then tug at their mother’s arm.
“I want this and I want that.”
Their little voices say.
...
