Sandra Osborne Poems

With smiles,
They hate,
And scream,
And fear.
...

It snowed so gloriously, all day long.
I love how snow feels in my hair,
So softly, slowly, fluffy fluttering
It falls so gently through the air,
...

It sounded like
You said “I Love You”
It sounded like
A waterfall.
...

Drinking is logarithmic we decided
While finishing the upteenth beer last night.
It was just before we had recited
Monty Python and the Meaning of Life.
...

Barely alive,
And floating
Above some empty
Stained sea.
...

I could scream
for days
inside this
stupid rain.
...

I think about the future,
And I wonder about our life.
To much hate for one planet,
To much fear.
...

It’s all so very fragile,
Wanting to be liked,
Wanting respect,
Someone to say, “Hey
...

It’s like giving birth,
This poetry writing,
All straining and groaning,
With lots of nail biting.
...

If green, red and yellow
Are the colors of life,
Then why is mine
So black and gray?
...
