Linda Ori Poems

If you want drama
Cockiness and arrogance
Vote for Obama
...

The party's over,
The wine is gone,
This awful headache
Arrived with the dawn;
...

She wanders among the ruins,
A ghostly figure from the past
Trapped withint the ancient walls
Of her once opulent existence;
...

So many times I wanted to ask,
Will you wait for me?
Are you strong enough to hold on
Until I can break loose?
...

As I sit here deep in thought,
Retracing the path of yesterdays
When first this journey began,
Still in its infancy....
...

I wake up every morning
To the sound of my alarm,
Walk out into the kitchen
Where the coffee's getting warm,
...

As children of the universe
Our destination earth,
We ride upon the solar winds
Until the hour of birth
...

If there was a chance in hell
That you could save us -
Why don't you try?
...

In the darkness of your sorrow
In the emptiness of grief
When the hope of understanding has gone dim,
From a realm beyond the senses
...

The river of time keeps on flowing
O'er wishes and dreams gone unknown,
The worst thing is wanting and knowing
Endearments that never were shown;
...
