Franklin J. Warren Poems
A beautiful love fills my heart,
Wonderful love,
And a wonderful smile, touched my heart,
Smile at me always,
...
How much love can one give,
An infinite amount I believe,
How long can a love live,
For as long as one can perceive.
...
A gardenia in my garden grows,
Beautiful and white as driven snows,
Are the blossoms fragrant and blown,
To be sure the pollen is sown!
...
I no longer wish to be,
For i see mostly, stupidity,
A world devoid of intellect,
Any care circumspect!
...
Now that times arrow has pierced me to the quick,
And today's society simply makes me sick,
...
A more chaotic race is inconceivable to me,
The main event is the inconsistency,
There are spurts of genius here and there,
...
I am so appalled at what i see,
That sometimes i no longer wish to be,
The never ending push and drive,
Of those just trying to survive!
...
At eighty nine I can see my fate,
Soon with death I will participate,
At this age I think it is time,
...
Sunset's are varied in so many ways,
Sometimes only the beauty stays,
Long enough for one to appreciate,
The finality for that date!
...
Today I think of days long gone.
With no one to call my own,
Those wonderful days of the past,
Linger on and last and last.
...
When someone analyses your actions,
And finds things that are detractions,
Such as not seeing their self worth,
Nor understanding another's turf!
...
Holding a small seed in his hand,
Gently placing beneath soil and sand,
Allowing that chance for it to grow,
And make more seeds to sow!
...
When this Universe was formed,
Hydrogen,Helium,Lithium and Beryllium,
Made the stars that the night sky is adorned
They exploded all elements then done.
...
Presidential election rhetoric falling on deaf ears,
And watching the candidates brings one to tears,
The one upmanship soon pales,
Before one candidates tall tales!
...
To think that you have found the best,
And find in truth they are like all the rest, Is a heart breaking revelation,
Of such prevalence in our nation!
...
I thought i had a wonderful friend,
That could and would help my heart mend,
She is as beautiful as the prettiest flower,
Yet when for me things turned so dour,
...
Thoughts arise as i sit and muse,
About how long i've had the blues,
Abhorring the games people play,
And how easily they do betray!
...
There are no connective threads running through,
The human race and what they do,
Each has to manage on their own,
Never realizing that they are a pawn!
...
