Lawerence Mize, Sr. Poems

These massive shootings
Have got to stop its plain
Especially when
We know who to blame
...

Time can be
A cruel, cruel thing
Can give you life
Take your dreams
...

We play 500 Rummy
On cold winter days.
Watch TV and talk.
There's always so much to say.
...

Saw the bodies
Just lumps on the ground
Destroyed buildings
Debris all around
...

Living on borrowed time.
Always wondering...
How many days left
are mine.
...

Is it Godless in Baltimore?
Where no one is safe.
Not a man or a woman,
In this time and place.
...

Life can be measured
By the good of our deeds
A spoken word, helping hand
A warm embrace when there's a need
...

I used to love
To hear my Boss say,
"Hey Larry, want to go
To the track today? "
...

We stayed at The Fairthorne
in old Cape May
A romantic hide-away
perfect for any day
...

Cell phones are great
so easy to use
push a button
text a message
