Tim Bovee Poems

Some people have a childhood garden
Filled with green and growing things
Some people have a childhood garden
Filled with purple peonies
...

Quench the birthday flames with quavering regret
And bravely dodge the smiles of friends and kin
After eighty years of living on the target.
...

I could not look you in the eyes
Through twenty years of smiles and tears.
We lived a love of lies.
...

Is it a better death in any significant way
to leap from a fiery hell?
I'm sure I cannot say.
...

Now I look around the warehouse and
What do I see but
Weapons of mass destruction for
Me and for thee.
...

The Best Poem Of Tim Bovee

Childhood Memories Sung To The Tune Of Shawnee West Franklin Bison Blues

Some people have a childhood garden
Filled with green and growing things
Some people have a childhood garden
Filled with purple peonies
Mine is sere
Throughout the year
Nothing grows here

Some people have a childhood rainbow
A sea of colors all aglow
Some people have a childhood rainbow
Red to violet in a row
Mine is gray
Bow of clay
Without a ray

Some people have a childhood temple
Covered with a million treasured dreams
Some people have a childhood temple
A sunny Wat of Gods and kings
Mine is plain
Squats in the rain
Functional 'n sane

Where childhood memories abound
Life flows vividly around
Where childhood memories have fled
Hearts lie dead
