Dorothy (Alves) Holmes Poems

One room
For myself
To share with you
With hot plate and
...

Explosion of clouds
Bursting blaze of sunset
As day becomes night
...

Diamond clad waters
Quietly quickly he glides
Finding peace divine
...

It lay dormant,
This rainbow inside of me...
My Laughter was mislaid
So deep within,
...

She calls him jazz
Because he is the music
Her heart hears...
Like the slow rippling
...

Can I tell you
What's in my heart?
Can I tell you
I've love you from the start'
...

She laughs!
and laughs!
and laughs!
And cries!
...

At the end of the rainbow
Is where I long to be...
With the pot of gold
I am promised to see.
...

If butterflies are free
We must abolish acrylic
Boxes,
Paper weights,
...

Deep inside you must know
I awake with your name on my lips.
You must know your face invades the space
Between me and all others.
...
