James B. Earley Poems

Though they are with you
Yet....they're alone
Frightened and longing
For surroundings they've known
...

Hapless Jim Lehrer

'The Lord works in mysterious ways
.....His wonders to perform'
Once the process clears the air
..Different train of thought is born
...

There is a message somewhere written
Etched in the annals of time
In that message a list of names
And on that list is mine
...

I never knew
I'd know such bliss
How could I know
I'd feel like this
...

Deny... 'The Existence'
.....To those who pray
Yet...praise...The premise
..........Come
...

Laws themselves won't save a life
Rules simply have no bearing
But to the anxious soul adrift
Provides a sense of caring
...

When death ends life
A thread is torn
The knot is tied
And the child is born
...

..Atheism at Christmas
Exchanging knick-knacks
Appreciating the spirit
Yet..denying...the facts
...

...Some wizened poets gathered
For a challenge thought absurd
'Compose a poem of driven passion
...Using only a single word'
...
