Edwina Reizer Poems

If you could ever read my mind
I don't know what I'd do.
For all the things I think about
would all be known to you.
...

I always thought life would be
just as I wanted it for me.

I just let it happen without a plan
...

I gave myself to you
and I wonder why I did?
Could I not look the other way
and let my heart stay hid?
...

Witches brew their Halloween stew
and stir the pot this day.
Ghosts and goblins prepare themselves
to eerily pass our way.
...

Seventy-five and writing so much
I know I must be out of touch
with those around me that wonder why.
Their wonder is just as strange to me.
...

"Tis sad to think that when I die
I must leave my words behind.
I'd like to take them with me
wrapped up in my mind.
...

Wrap me up in memories.
Tie me with a bow.
Keep me wrapped up tightly
so my memories never go.
...

I'm chilled to the bone this rainy day.
It's been pouring and pouring my time away.
My words are circling again in my head
while the rain comes down and the worms are fed.
...

The road that was not mine
I've often wondered about?
If I had followed that road somewhere
would I have felt left out?
...

I shall write and I shall sing
and when I finish, not a thing
that's sung or said
will ever compare to thoughts
...
