Karen Honnor Poems

You welcomed me with friendly smile when I was only 3,
You took my hand and walked with me around the nursery,
You let me know that you would answer if I should need to call,
You reassured, encouraged me, watched that I didn’t fall,

And it's Music Time today.

Marching forward go the steps of time,
Incessant twists and turns along the line.
Like a hand of cards deal out a sudden chance,
Life’s choices lead an ever-moving dance.
...

Every day the news tells of another tragedy, more needless waste.
Bombarded with these images, can we still tell how bad?
They become background fragments of our lives of haste.

Standing proud, asuming a somewhat ungainly grace,
The outside deceptive, as you begin,
Hiding the treasures that lie within,
