David Harris Poems

There are lots of memories locked away
within the shadows of my mind.
Memories of childhood years gone by
and they are located in the dark recesses
...

In the book of life
we learn a little
with each page we turn.
We learn a little tolerance
...

Standing looking out at the valley below
with its small tidal bay.
The tall masts lie drunkenly on angles
as their boats are left stranded
...

I did something
I said I would never do.
I looked back at the first pieces
of writing that I ever wrote.
...

A simple kiss
can lead to many things,
a heart filled with love
and a golden ring.
...

As the purple shades
of twilight call
from across the garden walls.
I hear old loves reverie
...

With a heart that plays around,
it will never find some solid ground.
Always too busy to settle down.
The heart that wanders around,
...

(This poem was inspired by a comment placed on one of my pieces by my friend Alison Cassidy.)

When a friend throws you a line
never worry about its brand,
...

He sat in his own world
writing down the stories
that came to his mind.
He never watched time,
...

Some days you wake up
and gloomy clouds cover the sky.
It doesn’t mean you are
going to have a bad day for a start.
...
