James McLain Poems

Knowing you well left a hole in my heart
Some how you knew just how that I felt
And feeling the way that you knew that I felt
Will we both know the end when it comes
...

Night's finally come and now my journeys nearly done
I have been trying to get in touch with only you
Year's have passed and now the ground is under the sea
Have you, can you know that I've been thinking,
...

In a wood that's lush and deep and green I sat,
Looking at a path that leads from left to right.
A single lonely figure that was I, and here the fog
Was moist and warm and white.
...

Do no go into that bright light that waits.
For all whom cross that finish line and start
This life again.
Yes it burns,
...

In a wood that's lush and deep and green I sat,
Looking at a path that leads from left to right.
A single lonely figure that was I, and here the fog
Was moist and warm and white.
...

Frozen light is love the choice is yours,
And the dark unfolds upon it's self to reach inside the test.
As more arrive than leave some come without a soul,
And he and she do good and do not age.
...

What is the source of authority,
Is it your God?
How do you know that it feels good if you lie or claim
That you never did it.
...

I having looked at both side by side,
In fair weather and in calm.
And neither having the better claim,
Though when I walked that path again,
...
