R.L Glassman Poems

The Moon does play a nightly tune
Springing against the sky
The leaves are blown and have flown
Into my open eye
...

Do not wait for the morrow
Or better days to come
For once arrived all tomorrow
Will soon be naught and done
...

The things I want to show you
the things I'll show you will be grand
the places that you'll see,
come, take my hand
...

In paradise I am lost,
Where mundane is gone
Where there's no heat nor frost
And greenery covers the lawn.
...

Although I am small in sight
when I look at the night sky
it reminds me
so are the stars, that shine so bright
...

oh your sweet love and tender kiss
I know I will deeply miss

your gentle touch and kind caress
...

Come, my beloved, to meet the bride
Let us together welcome the fall
We'll lie on the sand until eventide
And watch the waves of sea crawl
...

O, Earth! O, Heavens!
Do you have any ear?
My mind is ailing,
My heart is sick,
...

I found a mend for a friend
amidst the soft dew
I hear bells in our shells
when our quarrels - they were few
...
