Mimie Durand Poems

When the sun sets over the ocean
when the moon begins to rest
she sits at the ocean’s beach
its red cloak disappears in the west.
...

I have been morbidly ailing, for many months
Death would be such bliss
Finished with suffering and all its evil
Waiting for life to dismiss.
...

Winter snowflakes silently falling
Trees are white; yet bare,
No birds are singing
It’s dormant everywhere.
...

One day I met two Geckos
I asked them what they eat,
They said they eat all sorts of bugs
Except for their smelly feet.
...

Food
Delicious, enticing
Cook, devour, consume
Textured, filling * smooth, flowing
...

It’s hard to accept losing a child
Why wasn’t it me;
Life is too short as it is
I don’t agree that it's our destiny.
...

Marine Corps Boot Camp changes one and all
Drill sergeants makes you feel embarrassed and small,
They get in your face as you stand straight and tall
You’ll recognize his voice and rush to his call.
...

I’m four-years-old
Daddy left us alone
It's been months now
he hasn’t phoned.
...

His young wife, his love
His entire life a companion,
He didn't recognise the signs
Before her life came to an end.
...
