Dorothy (Alves) Holmes Poems

black against pale sky
shadow in the pouring rain
barren silhouette
...

Somebody said,
'He's too fat! '
Somebody said,
'She' too tall.'
...

Missing You

The repeated song of my heart...
Year in!
...

Clouds wearing halos
Brightening gray spaces in
Sky after the rain
...

I just want to thank you
For putting a band aid
On my broken heart,
I was turning around in circles
...

Snow angels spread wings
Gliding down mountain slide boards
All below praise Jah
...

Pale fairy dancers
Spin in haze of morning mist
Wearing spider's webs
...

There is an elephant
Standing
In my chest
And
...

Peace maker
Heart breaker
Once brought me news I did not want
Never know what's on other end
...

Here where there is love
Beauty rises from the heart
The eyes speak volumes
...
