tim's Bits and Pieces - 10. Tommy's Poems
1. our garden
snapdragons nip and tiger lilies growl
while roses grow thorns to protect
poppies blow and bow in the languor
invited by the torridness of summer
insects float by or buzz with determination
in our garden overgrown with neglect
but Mother does not want or need
the scratchings of human ingenuity
2. on Love
So many poems are written about love
Why?
Because we don’t understand
To love you must have faith
For it is not a tangible thing
We only know that it feels good
Love is a drug that comes with no price
Is that right though?
Cuz when it ends it sure ain’t free
3. for Tarek:
You saved me and gave me life
Resurrected this broken man
I love you for all you’ve given
And the life that you’ve chosen to share
