The First Shrike Poems

People come into your life for a reason
a season or a lifetime

When you know which one it is
...

Sight blinded aura
thought wait
sit and drown
...

Unkind Words

Meant not for her
no understanding than
...

A special place
that none
may find
where winds
...

where would any be
the lofty the low
without a dream
to guide them so
...

The dreams
of my heart
my mind
doth pass
...

A lettered man
that knows the law
is all I aks of thee
...

Cry To Me


Please of you
...

The child I cried
when from the womb
you finally came
...
