Edwina Reizer Poems

This old heart of mine
It just was doin’ fine
Until one look at you
And all at once I knew
...

What bliss can come from one sweet kiss
to last for unseen centuries?
Never to be forgotten in taste or memory,
always remembered in the soul.
...

When the day is over
and night time comes upon her,
all that happened within that day
will be forgotten after.
...

I heard the hoot of an owl at night
and when I heard the sound
I followed the sound and saw his eyes.
They were yellow and round.
...

There was a priest who asked a man
what he prayed about.
“What I pray Father every single day
is why I still have doubt? ”
...

If you were to venture in the fall
when all the leaves are bright,
I’d pray that before the leaves were all gone
I’d see you in my sight.
...

Together for years that get swept away
and yet apart sometimes,
brings me to a place everyday
when I sit and write my rhymes.
...

Dragonflies and butterflies
both flit in the air.
And after their short life
are gone with wing and prayer.
...

The evening was very strange.
There was nothing to do but drink.
So we drank more than we should.
Both of us started to think,
...

In between the brambles in a blueberry patch
I would pick a few to taste.
They were sweet, yet some were tart
and the dilemma I now faced
...
