Edwina Reizer Poems

A man looked down at his dog on the floor
and he wondered why
the dog was content to sleep on the floor
or wherever he would lie?
...

The Liberty Bell which is a symbol of freedom
cracked as it was being rung.
Maybe its founders thought it would last
as it was being hung.
...

There's a time to be troubled
and a time to be calm.
But now all I can remember
is how you had me within your palm.
...

Christmas is for children when the year does end.
But when I see my Christmas tree
I feel like a child again.
Christmas is for boys and girls with their eyes aglow.
...

The lakes are frozen again.
They look like silver glass.
The cold winds from the north do blow
and another winter must pass.
...

The Irish have a drink or two
At the end of every day.
It helps to make life easier
And makes them want to say.
...

We women are remarkable
and we all know that's true.
We look for the bright side
in most that we do.
...

Spellbound, she peeked beyond the curtain.
The audience was full.
She could not remember her opening lines
and now there came a lull.
...

If you could ever read my mind
I don't know what I'd do.
For all the things I think about
would all be known to you.
...

I always thought life would be
just as I wanted it for me.

I just let it happen without a plan
...
