Sara Turner Poems

High heel shoes, fancy dress,
Golden earrings look the best,
Diamond rings, each finger one,
To prove success, all is done,
...

I have a question I wish you would answer,
To give me a little piece of mind,
Tell me your game so I'll know who to blame,
And I won't be so terribly blind
...

I sit and ponder about this life,
The way it twists and turns
How can I, but one small speck
Leave my mark in this fickle world?
...

Remember me? your alter ego
My face that haunts your tortured dreams
Reaching out to hold you back,
I'm your yesterday
...

Can you see my face hovering in your dreams and
think of how it could have been?
Have you ever been rushed by my memory and
wish things had been different?
...

Someone pulls the strings,
We are but puppets created for a play,
Made to dance or walk or fall,
For the puppet masters whim,
...

I walked right past you,
After loving you so long,
I was looking the wrong direction
And when I looked back you were gone,
...

You're wearing down my resistance
No matter how hard I fight
You snagged that little piece of me
That unravels me at night
...

The pages have turned,
Leaving you no longer in my story,
The chapters have left you behind,
The author has written you out, yet:
...

The lights flash across the stage
And from the left he enters and waves
The crowd stands and screams his name
He nods his head and a smile touches his lips
...

The years may dim the image of you within my mind
But I will hear your laughter and think of you in kind
Your name will echo in the wind,
Your eyes will shine thru night,
...

If I could reach out and touch a moment in time,
I’d reach out and touch you
If I could recall any voice or whisper
I’d recall the sound of you singing
...

A shadow cast upon the wall,
Candles flicker, wax drops fall,
Silence is the only sound,
companionship is slowly found,
...

Lonely for you is what I've become,
A whole being only lacking my heart,
I left it sitting on your doorstep,
Waiting for you to arrive,
...

The Best Poem Of Sara Turner

Wealthy, Not Rich

High heel shoes, fancy dress,
Golden earrings look the best,
Diamond rings, each finger one,
To prove success, all is done,

A silver Rolls, chauffeur drive,
Fly to Paris where life's alive,
Take a taxi one hundred miles,
To meet the press, flashy smiles,

Mink fur coat to wear in fall,
Flaunting wealth to one and all,
A thousand dollars, help the poor,
Just to show there's still some more,

Fifteen bedrooms to serve but one,
Owning time and buying fun,
Giant parties thrown at whim,
Flash the green, attracting him

Maid to tend, beck and call,
Clean the mess, serve the ball,
Security for many years,
Not satisfied, frustrated tears.
