Mari Martin Poems

Yesterday my dream was to know Love.
How many yesterdays have come and gone?

In my youth my dream was to be grown.
...

I see in your eyes
a passion that consumes
my every thought
my every breath.
...

In all the world
there is beauty.
It is not always seen.
It is not always felt.
...

In the sea of life he glides
graceful and caring
with a light of guidance.
Quiet is his song to those who are lost.
...

If I could be just half
of what you dreamed I'd be
with all the rainbows at my feet
for all the world to see,
...

Shadowed are my footprints
through silent hallways
lined with unfired lamps
dampened by mornings dew.
...

Graceful dancers
your fingers hold stories,
softly spoken secrets,
whispers of love
...

Through time and space,

through wind and fire,
...

The sky awakens
light caressed by my dreams
lingering in eyes that are shaded
lashes full
...

Night,
your beauty is infinite
cast upon ever moving blankets,
grains of life
...
