david lessard Poems

I thought I could make it on my own,
Now I realize, it isn't true;
Now I give it up to you,
What troubled me, you always knew.
...

You do not need a map,
to tell your critics where to go,
You do not need a guide,
to tell you where the river flows;
...

Happiness is not a thing called Joe,
Happiness doesn't have a name,
If you discovered love and God,
Then you have happiness and fame.
...

no matter what they say about you love,
you set a thousand hearts a-racing;
with your sexy, stunning smile,
it's you we were a-chasing.
...

Is time such a fleeting thing?
Who can finish what they start?
The years flee and seasons bring,
An age that chills the dying heart.
...

Meet me in St. Louie, meet me in St. Paul,
Meet me in Seattle or don't meet me at all.
See me in New York, see me in L. A.,
See me in Salt Lake City, or San Francisco Bay.
...

I have a bit of beard,
and my hair is growing long,
But I don't have to shave,
or get it cut,
...

I am fed up with vampires,
and werewolves and the rest,
Anne Rice has had a change of heart -
Let's hope it's for the best.
...

I used to hear just fine,
but that was yesterday;
Now I'm going deaf my friend,
I miss you by the way...
...

Who's to say, what is, is best?
Who's to say, we'll win or fail?
Who's to say, we've come too far,
To blaze a brand-new trail?
...
