Robert Green Poems

Stood in the corner gathering dust
Steel strings
Pitted with rust
Loose and untuned
...

The truth hurt, nothing to atone
There were no lies
Moving alone
Dancing with tears in my eyes
...

Don't fear the Reaper
Another sleep only deeper
Your toil is done
No more midday sun.
...

The poets words,
Of the heart
For a love, lost!
On deaf ears
...

There she stood in shoes of Red
Dressed in Black!
Broad brimmed hat!
Respect for the departed
...

Wooden soldiers
Tall and strong
Guarding woodlands
In rows so long.
...

If I were a painter!
I would paint a picture of you,
If I were a songwriter!
I would sing of my love for you,
...

Winter cold we are born
One of strife
To this we are sworn
This, the cycle of life
...

Elusive as a butterfly
In your voice I hear you sigh
The beat of it's wings
Your voice to me it sings
...

Dreams are for fools and poets
Let the dreamer dream
And the poet write
And let us mere mortals pine. 
...
