James Meaney Poems

If spring lasted forever
I'd never have to say goodbye
to when summer ended
or when the fall leaves died
...

I met this girl as a junior,
she shot me down like an archer
& sailed through my heart and laid anchor
walked upon my dusty shores
...

Censorship disallowing people to run
Keeping them grouped and all in a tether
Darkness will fall and silence to come
Not before A harmony to bring ill weather
...

--Needs More work on Rhythmic flow

He never wears his shoes
and he never wears his shirt,
...

I wonder why being my-self is so unsettling
I see little that benefits my nature
I want to be Detached from the personality's of common society
I am both broken and Capable
...

Lay down - this cold ground
Contemplative mind, look up;
So far to climb
Getting to were I fit in
...

This wishing tree
Grows in my yard
I tell it my secrets
I tell it my heart
...

All I know is that your so right
Your the rightest thing for me
I wish that you'd let me in
You know we could be something
...

New York bound
Here too throw it down
An instinctive lyricist
Like grown from the ground
...

When the sky is high
& the moon is blue
Speckles of Gold connect to
Us Rising to the stars
...
