Lillian Heigle Ridlen Poems

I can't change the world, by the waving of my arm
No I can't make the mountains touch the sky
But I can make the world a better place to live
By loving that bit of innocence in you Somehow when we're together, it just comes shining through
...

Late evening falls, I hear the sound
Of church chimes belting out lovely peaceful tunes
As the garden flowers open and sigh in relief
Gone the sweltering heat of noon A robin lands upon the evergreens
...

May we, all live
To see a time
When hands across
The waters meet With outstretched arms
...
