David Ritter Poems

Sitting here all alone
thinking, just how much you've grown
You're growing up, you're almost two
My joy the first time holding you
...

If I'm unable to write again,
for this doomed world will soon pass me by,
I feel impelled to pen a few lines,
that may fall under your teary eye.
...

Joe sat in his gloomy dark cell,
staring at the black walls of stone.
When a recurring thought of her,
reminded him he was alone.
...

Of all the seasons in the year
Springs the one that makes me cheer

For longer days and a brighter sun
...

Concerned, I said 'yes.'
I hung up the phone.
This Halloween night
I would be alone.
...

My sweet Jesus I call out to you.
Oh sweet Jesus what am I to do?
If ever I needed you now is the time.
Search my heart I'm sure you will find.
...

I rest here in my mommy's womb,
a home I'm pleased I found.
Unaware of a coming doom,
I'm sleeping safe and sound.
...

I want you to meet my best friend.
I've known him for many a year,
and his love for me knows no end,
with strength like that whom shall I fear?
...

We have all betrayed the Lord
in our lives at various times
But the secret is to admit our sin
When the convicting Holy Spirit shines
...
