Patricia Grantham Poems

The clouds bursting forth with their cascading rain
Fields overflowing with the harvest of golden grain

The shimmering sun radiantly showing all of its glory
...

Two lovers strolling on the beach walking hand in hand
Barefoot and scantily clad upon the bleached white sand
Their sweet words are many as the sand is on the shore
They held each other tightly as if to part no more
...

BIRDS
Wise as an owl
Humble as the dove
Graceful as an eagle
...

Patrolling the streets every night and day
Protecting our livelihood come whatever may
Flying an airplane or even riding in a boat
Throwing a life jacket to keep someone afloat
...

Into each of our lives a little tear must fall
This is a gift from God that is common to all
It cleanses the wounds of the troubled soul
When the burdens of life has taken its toll
...

Just imagine the snow on a cold Winters day
When old man winter have had his say
Then Spring has sprung and its flowers begin to bloom
Dandelions and croakers are a plenty is there still room?
...

Frightened and bewildered you feel so all alone
To fend for yourself all your friends are gone
Ran for cover but you left behind a trail
You tried to defend yourself but to no avail
...

Pen, pencil and paper in hand with lots of smooth ink flowing
Thought and ideas pops up in the mind well worth the knowing
Then typed or written on paper not always in an orderly fashion
The making of rhyme and rhythm is one of our greatest passion
...

Love that was lost
Is filled with pain
Love that was found
Has blossomed again
...

A land that's overflowing with milk and honey
No need for food, clothing, goods or money
Neither sickness, sorrow, death nor pain
Nor shelter from the storm not even the rain
...
