Richard Wlodarski Poems

Lest we forget
Those who were blinded
So that we may see
Lest we forget
...

What is a mother?
Someone whose life
Gave birth
To a new soul
...

May you open your hearts
To the less fortunate
Feel within their heart
And hug them with your love
...

When the night was so young
You smiled from afar
I was way too damn shy
To let laughter be there
...

And Jesus takes you down to that place by the Big River
Where sinners gather with the Salvation Army chatter
And you know you wanna believe
Even though you cannot hear Him
...

It's Father's Day today
Not quite like yesterday
The silent enemy
Forcing us to be friends
...

To be a childhood star
Knowing you've surpassed the bar
To see the moon beyond the sky
Totally sober and not high
...

O Lord Creator
Today I give thanks
For so much in life:
Two eyes witnessing
...

Enough pain
To last life
Endured such
...

I shall kill
Mine enemy
With such kindness...
I shall serve him
...
