Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

Like anything,
From a seed to bloom.
With it noticed to be done.
Is slow.
...

The high cost paid it is.
To escalate a need to please,
A feeding of a greed.
Believed exclusively kept to keep.
...

Truth to accept,
Seems to have become a threat.
To many refusing to connect it,
As a possibility to be true.
...

Did you like the movie?

"Very much so.
From beginning to end.
...

Enjoying peace of mind to get.
To wish for it.
And received to have earned.
Nothing about it is lonely to feel.
...

How can anyone aging,
Claim to be looking ahead.
Without accepting changes.
Or notice them to have been made.
...

We all owe it to ourselves,
To be better human beings.
Instead of seeking ways,
Of receiving to deceive...
...

When I write,
I think of you.
And how better I can communicate,
The way I feel.
...

Have you waited too long.
With more of your interest,
Focused upon that which is wrong.
Giving that time to waste it.
...

It had not been wanted.
To get free.
As it still is.
...
