Cynthia Buhain-baello Poems

Was it the twist of Fate
Or a wink of Destiny
Or the humor of fleeting Chance
That Love brought you to me?
...

It is not the end when Love ends
That's just a brief consoling respite
For you'll never know what the Future sends
Soon another Love may come with it.
...

For forty years I was blind
Till I read the Book where there I find
The Wisdom to live and do what's right
Your Words were Truth, they were Light.
...

When life seems lost and oh, so empty
And all that's left is hopelessness
When even Love turns cold and dreary
And ever elusive is Happiness
...

After the goodbyes
And the tears in our eyes
After memories fade
And the vows unmade
...

Being alone is bliss
There is no one there to please
Your life is amazingly free
And you are what you want to be.
...

Elusive peace
Flies gently as a dove
It fails to soar
the heights with ease
...

Go softly with your steps, little girls
Enjoy the sweetest innocence
For soon this cruel world unfurls
Its dark reality and pretense.
...

I still find the roses red
A dozen ones you placed on my bed
A time of long-ago Valentine
When my precious Love was still mine.
...

This tapestry of life
I seem to have woven in years
Show colors that have blended
Through all the laughter
...
