jennifer jane pryce Poems

Trust me now I have to say
Like breaking dawn creeps into day
Like rainbows chase the pot of gold
Like thoughts as words need to be told
...

Everything’s gone wrong today
I’ll tell you how it started
Got up late and rushed about
And couldn’t find my glasses
...

You always said you’d be there
Through thick and thin you said
How come when I now need you
You’re fast asleep in bed
...

Please chase me round the house again
And fall about and scream and shout
Jostling and fighting and marching in strides
Helplessly laughing and clutching our sides
...

Cover me up and let me sleep
My time has come but please don’t weep
Much later on when I am gone
Sit down with me and sing my song
...

My dad he passed away
My heart it broke in two
I try to summon up his face
And see him before me now
...

I saw him today, yes I saw him ….
Had no time to run, or hide
Had to stay and get my groceries
Fumbling and shaking inside
...

I can feel you still; your warm body on mine
Holding me, touching me caressing me as one
And my hands running smooth and soft across your perfect skin
With silken strokes that excite me
...

Sweet man, from you I see in your eyes
A passion and longing and needing for ties
But I cannot give you what you desire
Cos if I did, that would make me a liar
...
