Peter S. Quinn Poems

I want to touch
To give glow

You know where my heart is
...

I am a leaf in your hands and your eyes
Morning that comes for a day to believe
In the hours of off thoughts the nights gave
Lonely in their mood and cornered darkness
...

I’ve looked for moments of love
Through air, earth and water waves
Like a caged bird
The scars of my heart have come out
...

The river is in struggle
Because of the sand at the bottom and the pebbles that get in its way
But it shall overcome and flow again free
On its way to the sea
...

The water's ripple,
both the origin and ending
- earth’s matter divine.
...

Remembering the streams of the amulet
Yesterdays of sweetly aromas so clear
Now gone into forgetfulness atmosphere
Going in flames memories dreams to forget
...

Now in its parting
The waves of a summer song
- Oceanic seagulls
...

I love the oceans of wavering waves
Summerset mornings that come in the meadows
Each shade that in to night there paves
When the evening tempers in their mood glows
...

Let me come with you now
To roads each person knows
Our thoughts crossed somehow
Knowing what dries or flows
...

Let me sing about another hour
Where the moon keeps me company
Until dawn will whiten flower
With its plots and time to see
...
