Mark Anderson Poems

Beaming bright across the galaxies,
Your petals extend through heavens gate.
You waited until now to reveal yourself,
For the world it was worth the wait.
...

The first one was for attraction,
It lasts but a short while.
The second one was for association,
But talk runs out of style.
...

Miyamoto Musashi is my name,
I have survived in over sixty mortal fights.
I lived to achieve great Japanese fame,
Therefore I offer the following advice.
...

Become Water:

Assume any form
...

What do you say to a man who lost his wife?
A young woman befallen in the prime of life.
Neither words nor sympathy can ever express,
The loss, the shock, confusion and sadness.
...

I bring here today,
All that I am…

My Fear,
...

Please darling don't despair,
Because I'm over here and you're over there.
Our first Christmas apart from you all,
I long to be home but duty calls.
...

Things I thought I wanted,
Things I thought I lacked.
Things I thought brought happiness,
Turned out to be far from that.
...

Rays of light rifting throught the trees,
Ocean's roar beckons the light not to fade.
Young woman's smile; a youthful tease,
Yearning of a man becoming old and grey.
...

Barbies and dollhouses during the day,
Designing houses for serious play.
All the while watching Nick-at-Nite,
Sponge Bob and Cat Dog all within sight.
...
