Linda Ori Poems

Not so young and vibrant anymore
Wonder what the future holds in store
What contract did I sign on coming in?
When does the living end and death begin?
...

Deep within a cell of my own making,
The door remains unlocked -
I have but to open it;
...

I regret today
Dreams I've yet to realize
Running out of time
...

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

Every little thing
No matter how small
Is here for a reason,
A part of the All;
...

Oh, please!
Should writing poetry by a painful experience?
To rhyme, or not to rhyme.............
That is the question, it seems;
...

Her face was lovely, in her hair she wore
A sparkling crown - a gem of ancient lore,
Her gown of flowing satin, white and gold
Was truly such a beauty to behold;
...

I turn around and walk away -
Tomorrow is another day,
The past is done, I've closed the book,
I'll never take another look;
...

Negative thinking breeds negative energy -
A lower level of vibration
A lower level of feeling
Slow
...

Who takes the time to understand
Depression and its woes,
The fears and insecurities
A dying patient knows;
...
