Paul Warren Poems

What is left
A memory, a feeling, a picture of them
When you close you eyes weary again
What do you see in the dark and the cold
...

There are places I go and people I meet
For good or bad they make my life complete
Who they were and what they did may be mundane
But their memories are part of my refrain
...

We asked for this life
So very long ago
When we were young
And everything seemed possible
...

Damaged People need to live on
Even when they can't get along
And when they're judged to be unkind
Maybe it's just that they are looking to find
...

How many signs of impending doom
Do you need to spread across the world in gloom
Are there earthquakes and tsunamis in our time
When these warnings can be so sublime
...

When in space orbit look out for a red conjunction
If you are on the international space station to function
It seems near earth there is a lot of space junk
Put up in orbit and now is just a lot of funk
...

Bending in the win
As the storm blows the storm in
Pine trees stand sentry.
...

John Lennon died on this day
Chapman shot and blew him away
So sad a man of peace is killed so violently
You see killing can be done so easily
...

What was in my stare
That made you not care
What did I say
To make you feel that way
...

Who will welcome you
Now your day is through
To greet you as you walk in
And see them all again
...
