Faith Elizabeth Brigham Poems

i am reborn every morning
when i rise expecting
good things from the day
getting my dose of raw reality
...

Love Is Everything
if i should live to be one-hundred
i still shall not forget
the love that lives deep inside of me
...

It happened one evening.
It was not so long ago.
It happened one evening.
It was not so long ago.
...

if i had children
i would teach them
to be kind to others
to respect their elders
...

i could write volumes
on all i've seen of
desolation and despair
but for what good purpose
...

ah, there is such beauty in lady's soft sweet eyes
i swear God take me if it isn't so
i see in them a bit of heaven
a fleeting glimpse of you
...

times have changed-
you have your life
your wife and soon
to be born baby
...

loving the sound of words
she reads aloud in solitude
to an imaginary audience
dreaming one day she
...

she belongs to the earth
her star-filled eyes sparkle
windblown hair picture perfect
her electric frame illuminates
...

sometimes, i just don't want
to be me if being me means
never getting the love i need
loving too much and trusting
...
