Reginald Goodridge Poems

let me be honest
honestly love you
you who be inspiration
inspiration to fly
...

Fumbling tasks to the left.
Replacing new mistakes for old.
Where have you gone?
How busy can you be?
...

My light has been low
Low, so low, no glow
What shine, mine no more
Glimmer, gloss, gone, -noire
...

Listening to their verbs
actions and their way
ways, many expressions
lazy, slothful; days
...

if you want your children to shine
less home work, less english
more quality, more brilliance
try love, do you understand this
...

rolling over with equisit form
yawning, gnawing, covered with warm
sentiments, nothing is complex
but all, very simple in context
...

So the mountaiin greets me
Pleasantly every 24 hours
Just about when I'm turning over
Consumed by its massive green powers
...

We are seldom together
Fighting time, responsibility
Slow years churn from quick minutes
Truly a miracle, we've found our commonality
...

As you weild your cutlass
You smirk, you grip the handle
Slashing through emotions
My bones are cracked, to even the marrow
...

Emeralds there

Jade to spare
...
