Harvey Horst Poems

Dear, Raymond
When we were younger
I hit you over the head
with a milk jug.
...

I will not believe
Not until equally all are seen
And from no child's eye a tear gleams
No, I will not believe
...

I fell in love under the autumn skies
As I watched her dance in the midnight light
I watched my world change with open eyes
I fell in love under autumn skies
...

I do not think I will ever age
At least in my mind, it seems that way
I do not believe I have ever aged
Unless I have and my memory of it faded away.
...

While they are still happy
And innocent
And Kind.
...

I wish I were drowning
In a calm blue serenity
Or at least sinking
Into something like that
...

Why don't be so uppity
My poor little Guppity
We march til we're old
Or dead
...
