Lento Maez Poems

Happened to get back late
From an important date
Had no time to write
The schedule was tight
...

At first I was amused
Little did I know
That I was being abused
At first I thought
...

Where do I rest
This humble soul
Where can it rest
This troubled soul
...

Hidden hopes help heal
Honest humans hopelessly
Hindered however happily
Hoping helplessly
...

We laughed at our foolish things
Our collections of the every day
To us they were just ok
What we prized above all else
...

Generosity generates grave
Graphical gestures
Growing graciously
...

He sang songs mostly in Doo Wop
More often his genre of choice
Amazingly his songs never did flop
He was blessed with a jubilant voice
...

Walking in sunshine
Smelling the breeze
Happily singing
Ops, here’s a sneeze
...

A twinkling star whispered to me
A sensuous story about a wandering bee
The flighty bee encased in nectar
Kissed flower upon flower with no exception
...

I thought I was a down to earth person
Never wondering about heavenly things
Then I met her and time stood still
The earth stopped, heaven opened up
...
