Heather Z. Hanna Poems

Steady breeze blowing flags
Receding brown of greening grass
Single blackbird winging high
A warming Spring gives gentle sigh
...

A flower colors our garden
With many rainbow hues,
Expressing our feelings
In Yellow, reds and blues.
...

A better day, a better night.
No tears or fears or even frights.
...

Must I face this clear bright day?
With heavy Heart
and sorrowful soul?
The sunlight ebbs and flows
...

When I breathe are you there?
In the stillness of the house as it settles,
Whether the afternoon drone of distant lawnmower
Or in the burning of a candle late at night,
...

I am down inside a sadness that won't leave me alone.
When I think of you and things that you've said
I manage a smile and it makes me free
For a moment, I fly
...

In my mind's eye
I could see you there
Physically, mentally, spiritually, sensually.
I could sense something beyond my vision.
...

My emotions run
Like the sea to the shore.
Rising up high
Retreating so low.
...

Nothing hides
The damage of time
To one's body
Except,
...

The truth
Is that I love.
It is simply,
Love.
...
