Henry Kriescher Poems

I've seen the glow of stars on starry nights
Gloried in the beauty of a setting sun;
I've seen the splendid dance of northern lights
And shared the rainbow's smile at storm's last fun.
...

So softly falls the evening snow
Like lover's hand, so soft, so slow,
In dark night time a whisper low --
Soft stars embraced in moonlight's glow.
...

Some say you rival not
The lark and woodland thrush.
The sky above is their lot
High above the woods and brush --
...

The cruelty of war that maims
The cries of children in the night
Cries that stop mercilessly --
Hear no more --
...

And a new day is born on the broad expanse of the snow
And man is now freed from the phantoms below -- and I must go!
I turn away -- the snow and its beauty my visit prolong --
But now day returns and my heart must leave with its song
...

The Best Poem Of Henry Kriescher

Incomparable

I've seen the glow of stars on starry nights
Gloried in the beauty of a setting sun;
I've seen the splendid dance of northern lights
And shared the rainbow's smile at storm's last fun.
Much beauty have I seen to warm my heart
And woo my mind and soul to tenderness,
I've heard majestic music of Mozart
And known the passions born of happiness.
These precious moments have I known before,
I've kissed the heavens and I've touched the earth --
The glory of the land, the restless shore --
But without you all these of little worth!
Your beauty like bright comet in the sky,
None like you, star most pleasing to my eye.
