Peter S. Quinn Poems

I knew you would come back
Into my heart again
For never in feelings love's lack
Sweet hours of giving men
...

My window - like the Street-
Full of life - and Fragrance-
That's autumn-
Every leaf Falling - bleaching Shades
...

Our dreams so dear in their wake
Of the night and silence hour
Dark or shadows away they take
In tenderness of their empower
...

Flowers in the background
Old times in gray and white
Life songs turning around
In their all and different light
...

Let me sing you a song
Of sweet lonesome tender
Feelings of summer’s long
In bleach of fall surrender
...

It’s getting late
And the time is going
Slowly on to fade
In its once glowing
...

Lonesome through the night
A love song in lost call
Like fluttering of wings in flight
In brownish yellow fall
...

My heart is full of fall’s tone
The leaves of summer's last
So much in their dreams alone
From yesterdays still and past
...

Like autumn leaves are falling
My heart is throbbing on slow
In memories deep down calling
Like leaves in its golden glow
...

Each hour of mine is dark
Like wintry times out there
Where shadows come to spark
In flickering dance everywhere
...
