MotiveA Poem by Donald Meikle
I hope my soul is beating time
As heart full feelings spill in rhyme Sunset redness fills my eyes Spilling tears to no surprise The taste of memories fills my head As purple nightfall steals the red These things are sent to try us mother said With that secret little half smile as she led The naughty boy who loves her off to bed Some days just follow others through the years So busy in my living there is no time for tears And as I sit here penning thoughts in rhyme My basic aim is ever. beating time © 2008 Donald Meikle |
