Vaughn Bekker Poems

How do you catch a mouse
Who thinks he`s really smart
Now that he`s moved into my house
He refuses to depart
...

You dance around but have no beat
Giving off your burning heat
Swaying – lapping forth to and fro
Consuming all as you go
...

Of all the nursery rhymes been told
Some just never seem to get old
From penokio`s nose that grew when he told a lie
To the little old lady who swallowed a fly
...

ALL THOUGH MY EYE DOES NOT SHED A TEAR
MY SOUL CRIES A RIVER
AND AS MY MIND FILLS WITH FEAR
MY BODY STARTS TO QUIVER
...

From deep underground I start unseen
Cool spring water fresh and clean
My only life not visible to the eye
I start to flow, as if the earth did cry
...

Early in the morning the sun slowly up does creep
All in the meanwhile we just seem to sleep
All the little birds sit and their songs they chirp
While off to work quickly our coffee we slurp
...

We get on the bed without any clothes
Our bare bodies to each other we expose
As you lye here in front of me
Your naked body i love to see
...

So many broken hearts I see
Broken hearts that need to be free
Troubled souls out in the cold
Darkened clouds over them hold
...

Searing heat, the land you fry
Unquenched thirst, you suck it dry
Your belly rumbles, consuming space
More intensely, quickening your pace
...

I showed her the letter
That no one was meant to see
I showed her the letter
That was never meant to be
...
