Randall Barfield Poems

Little Is Much

(For S.S. in Missouri)
...

Dear poems of love
Will never stop flowing
We’ll always hear them
Or read them, glowing
...

You’re young and fresh
Like sprouts in a greenhouse
Your skin is smooth,
Someone’s work of art
...

'Oh Milly, ' said Molly
'Mother and her jokes.'
'Oh Molly, ' said Milly
'Her jokes and her blokes! '
...

I don’t love your pic, I love your face

I’d like to see it pasted
...

You place me daily on your rear burner

But the heat is just the same
...

At least
You passed
Through my life
And I enjoyed
...

Roses are red
But all of them aren’t
Some are yellow
Some pink and white
...

Here I am
A little poem
Of just a few short lines
And there you are
...

I’d rather have Jesus
And silver and gold
For how can I help
A friend if I’m cold?
...
