Faded Memory

Young couple
in each others
arms
listen to the
waves
and feel the
warm breeze
Remember
when you’re older
how it felt this day,
knotted in each other
the future so
far away
The kisses will feel
different,
the looks won’t
be the same
but the ocean
will still be here -
its memories
never
fade

Metal Detector

Man with
the headphones
tell me what
you find
Can you help me…
I think I've lost
my mind

Forward


Thank you for your interest in my poems. The works presented in this collection were written between September of 1988 and July of 2005. I have chosen to include all of my poems because I am distributing this work electronically. I am hopeful that you find the time to read and enjoy these poems – whatever length of time that may be. As always, I welcome comments (good and bad), so don't hesitate to drop me an e-mail.

Enjoy!
Of course, as the band Semisonic says in the song Closing Time, "Every new beginning comes from some other beginnings end" and so, with that in mind, I will start a new beginning – a new collection of work, assuming the Gods (or whomever you believe in) are smiling upon me and I continue to be inspired…
