Melody McKinstrie Poems

Puffin Love

Let's be like puffins
Let's love like birds.
...

Filling The Void Of Silence

There is a void
I try to fill
...

Blinking Eyes

Time did not fly,
It just passed
...

I was with her when the clock struck twelve,
It meant that my sister's birthday
Was underway.
We were drinking.
...

A friend said civilization is ending.
Brick by brick.
Life by life.
Soul by soul.
...

When I see a black and white child hugging
I think of them as little soldiers of peace.
Much like white doves are a symbol
Mixed race children hugging and playing
...

Bitch Please
(A Poem for my Wonderful niece who I love dearly)

Christina Marie is one of my nieces
...

Some days you just feel blah,
Like the day should just go by
Hoping tomorrow will be better
Or at least the blah feeling
...

Playground Memories

When I see a playground
I get overcome with memories
...

I could try to reinvent the wheel.
But would that not be just futile?
I could say my love is brand new.
And indeed that would be true.
...
