Dorothea Kotsakos Poems

I climbed a weary mountain,
But I never reached the top
The way was long and dreary and I
Thought my guts would pop.
...

Don't pile flowers on my grave
or put a lyrical song on my headstone.
Pass me by as I breathe in life
And know me then, as I am now,
...

As far as the eye can see I vision
your love throughout every land.
Your strengths rise us up far beyond
the clouds,
...
