David Harris Poems

I went to the dentist
for the first time in twenty years.
Sat in the waiting room
waiting to get my call.
...

She put her hand in mine,
kissed me gently on the lips,
told me she loved me
and would always be mine.
...

If I was as fast as Mohammad Ali
I could switch the light off
and be in bed before it went dark.
Sadly, I am not that quick.
...

Hear the Whooper-will
as evening begins to call,
telling everything
evening is approaching fast.
...

Mary, you’re my lady
the precious mother of God’s son.
When you look down upon us,
we feel your reverence there.
...

I went to see a friend
who lives about fifty miles away.
My sense of direction being what it is,
I took a wrong turn
...

Sometimes the old
have to step aside
for the new,
but also the new
...

There are no limits
to what we can achieve
if we put or mind to it
and really start to believe.
...

Dear Lord we come to you
to help those who need it.
Let them know
whether they believe or not,
...

As writers we should see
a story in everything,
whether it be a dying twig,
or the birdies singing,
...
