What will denied
when darkness falls
To our tired souls
each new day calls
what joy retired
behind these walls
Still,
our wounded hearts enthralls
What pain relived
in silence stalls
each happy thought
our minds recall.
A further collection of poems, many from years in the Middle East, but also the California San Francisco and Central Coast areas (Santa Cruz, Carmel, Big Sur, Berkeley, etc.).
If you tend to believe romantic, passionate, masculine poetry is a thing of past eras, read "She Intrigues Me," and be swept away in the beautiful craft of a contemporary poet of love.
