Tess Rockenstire Poems

There’s moment of sorrow
Clouding the day ahead,
Turning upside down –
The ecstasy behind –
...

Like a “glass menagerie, ”
True self reveals when open and broken.
Two hearts inlove unmasked
bound to be discovered,
...

Father let me hear your

Voice when doubts overshadow me.
...

Mother Teresa I heard all your stories
I can only remember your veil and fragile skin.
Pulled and mired by this insecure world
As I watched you on my TV’s screen.
...

No pain nor sorrow is the place will I be.
Far in the galaxy, pure beauty surrounds me
Angelic face of peace here I beheld
Voiceless voice in me hears thunder
...

Sweetheart how I long to hold you tight,
In this magnificent night.
I think of us, and our playful pillow fight.
Let’s send our sweet kisses tonight
...

Rising sun in the east,
Warming my silken face,
As I let the sunrays in to my morning quest.
This cathedral of hope churning my inner self.
...

Once on a wintry day,
Down in yonder land.
In snow boots, winter coats and mitten
As everyone walked robotic.
...

This is a day to remember,
A joyful day in winter,
As I walked in the fallen snow,
Upon the hills I go.
...

You are my canopy
In this whirlwind – tide;
You bring inspiration
Like a dropped of a morning dew.
...
