Shalom Freedman Poems

WHAT CAN DEATH DO TO US

What Can Death Do To us
That Life has not already done?
...

WHAT DOES THE MORNING MEAN TO ME?

What does the morning mean to me?
Light
...

I AM THE HARE

I am the hare
The faster I run
...

I wonder why I want so much to live
In the Time I no longer will be here-

I consider it strange
...

DEATH DOES NOT NEED ME

Death does not need me-
Poetry does not need me either-
...

AGAINST THE UNCERTAINTY

Against the uncertainty
Of a world partially in flames-
...

I WISH I HAD A POEM

I wish I had a poem-
It has been a long day
...

The Poetry was more than the words-
It was the overflow of feelings
...

Friends are lost
One by one
Few remain
...
