Donna Nimmo Poems

Pine tree's standing oh so proud
The wind was blowing really loud
The red sand blowing every where
The pine trees breaking, I was there
...

My children are a source of joy
One a girl and the other a boy
Beautiful memories of them growing up
My babies at home are now a pup
...

Christmas time is getting near
I don't have much Christmas cheer
Pain from the past much on my mind
To all my loved ones, I'll be kind
...

She entered the bar with a grace i've never seen
She wore red lipstick, and blonde hair and quiet serene
Went up to the jukebox and played such a sad song
With tears in her eyes, you knew she'd been done wrong
...

Ask me how I'm doing? 'Very good I say '
My life is good, bad memories I try and keep away
I write as therapy to get me through
All the pain from the past, when I was blue
...

So you’re eligible for parole in two- thousand and thirty three
The woman you raped and tortured to death can never be
You’re in prison and living free and eating good meals
The precious life you took didn’t get such good deals
...

She sits trembling with fear as tears slide down her face
She hears his car back firing in the driveway as he ends this chase
He’s been stalking her and she runs once again for her life
Dear god in heaven, how could she have let him make her his wife
...

You were my sweetest friend, my guardian angel on earth
I could tell you anything, I loved you so long it seemed from birth
From above God could see your pain and how much you suffered
He decided to bring you home, his angels to bring you comfort
...

The Weather Panic Attacks
Watching every weather station, reading every report
Stomach twisting in knots, knowing my home is to be my fort
Over whelming fear of doom, of this hurricane that's headed this way
...

Silence can be full of rage
Feelings held in, so much to wage
Your inner being, screaming for love
Wanting human touch, not to let go of
...
