Francie Lynch Poems

Death,
So cruel,
So kind,
Has taken my worries away;
...

I'm a young man in the spring,
Looking forward to anything...everything;
Undaunted in the offerings.
Nothing's too demanding,
...

I can guess your names,
Cleverly chosen to reflect
This year's popularity.
Names beginning with XYZ.
...

Francie really is my name.
Uncle Francie has the same;
Uncle Francie is to blame.
...

Between autumn's offerings
And spring's wings,
Our winter lights are everything.
Crisp sky nights string tinsel streams,
...

This world is moving fast.
One thousand miles per hour.
Quicker around the sun.
Faster around the galaxy,
...

So many things happened
So many years ago.
You hitch-hiked to have tea with Mammy;
But not me.
...

I have a difficult time saying, Awkward.
And it's not easy to spell.
It isn't forward, or backward,
Just awkward.
...

During dinner talk
I hear her say,
His poems are very clever.
She said it loud, and all could hear;
