Tony Esmonde Poems

This song's for you,
like morning dew,
gently protecting:
quietly detecting,
...

I am full of love.
Not sure what that means.
Is it just a feeling?
Maybe truth, maybe dreams.
...

It flickers and wanes.
Grows stronger again.
It burns slow and fast.
How long will it last?
...

We do not get enough of love
seeking searching its source in vain.
Around about us below above,
its nucleus is oft hidden in pain.
...

O Lord do help us on this day,
may prayer assist us now to cope,
with trials, trauma along the way,
and give us courage again to hope.
...

They babble on
a constant chatter.
A media circus;
truth doesn't matter.
...

In what do I believe?
I sometimes ask.
Is it love, fear greed?
All memories of the past.
...

The road is long
am I getting weary?
I'll try a song
but the tune is dreary.
...

Watching and waiting,
expectant, stock still,
as wind soughs through treetops
of larch on the hill.
...

Light filtering through
brings thoughts of you,
now so far away.
...
