Poems

[lilyjohn]

Larry's poem post gave me an idea. I'm sure that most of us at one time or another have tried our hand at poetry. Let's each go back and pull those up out of our minds and share them here. Maybe if we get enough Katie may be able to find someway to market them and use the proceeds for ongoing expenses? If not at least it will help us know eachother better. Well check you all out later. I've got to go to work now. Lillian

I will start if that is alright. I have a lot that I have written over the years. This is one of my favorites.

Rushing Sea

Tell me mighty ocean with waters so deep and wide

Tell of some of the places you've been of some of the secrets you hide

Why are you so angry as you rush upon the shore?

You have so much to be proud of you could hardly ask for more

No matter where you go you are never out of place

Somewhere every moment the sun shines on your face

Most everybody loves you no matter where you are

People rush out to meet you, why you are like a shining star

With all the world devided and man not trusting man

You are always welcome in each and every land

I'd like to know your secrets, I'd like to be like you

I'd like to visit the places you've been and do the things you do

Every time I come to see you, you rush away so fast

You never have time to answer these many questions I ask
