Two Poems
by Don

Giving

I would hold out my hand
if only I could
I would give you my life
if only I could
The stars would be yours
if only I could
But tomorrow is yours
if only you’ll have -
The courage to face
the time yet to come

9-11

Falcon strike
Terrored eye
Sound of pain
Turn and look
Hold a hand
Falling……..
Blackness.

Tear of loss
Search in vain
Look and look
Shoulders sag
Weep and kneel
Falling………
Wilderness.

Clench-ed fist
Glint of eye
Hurt again
Clouds arise
Children gone
No change renew
Falling……..
Sameness.
