Elizabeth D Atkin Poems

Together we lie in the shade of the weeping willow
Listening to the soft flowing river
Meandering through the green fields
Taking with her our cares
...

A week
Endless time
Ceaseless hours
Lonely days
...

Thundering wheels of rubber heated
Mobile steel goes undefeated
Thumping pistons, grotesque loads
Pound and grind along our roads
...

Lazy days
Warm breeze,
Sunny haze
Tranquil seas,
...

How the moountains call me to the place I want to be,
I yearn to roam through valleys and set my spirit free,
Discovering the beauty of the early morning dawn,
Being there in Springtime to see the new lambs born,
...
