David Harris Poems

Sometimes we get angry
over the silliest of things,
but it is not anger,
but frustration
...

Some people call me blessed
others call me an angel,
but I think myself as none of these.
Just an ordinary person
...

When you live somewhere
for a very long-time,
street corners gather memories,
friendly memories
...

Sometimes we meet someone
who lifts your life
higher than before.
Their meeting touches you

and the gold rush was on.
Men saw nothing but shiny metal
twinkling in their eyes.

for just man alone.
It was created to give
all living things a home.

a four-leaf clover
to give me a bit of luck.
Therefore, off I trotted
...

Dear Lord as I pray to you today
for help for all of us everywhere
to get through another day.
There are some in this world,
...

Life is but a single thread
that stretches into infinity.
If the thread is ever broken
life then drifts away,
...

A blank canvas waits every morning
as the sun begins to rise.
It waits for me to start thinking
of what today will be my prize.
...
