Valerie Dohren Poems

The wind has sighed upon my leaves
Through many ages passed
A sheltered place for he who grieves
Beneath my branches vast
...

Next time (if I get the chance)
I will take a different stance
Yes, try to be what I am not
And so below unfold my plot) ...
...

Better to make someone smile
Rather than make them cry

Better to feed someone happiness
...

Beautiful the sunshine's glow
On a gentle summer`s day
Bringing joy to every heart
With all sadness chased away
...

Each day I watch the rising sun
Each night, the glowing moon
All time lays heavy on my mind
For you are gone too soon, too soon,
...

What say you my heart so tender
In the glow of eventide
When the world is calm and silent
And all tears fore'er subside
...

See the flowers softly blooming
All the trees, new leaves to bear
Nature's beauty thus unfurling
As we breathe the honeyed air
...

They soon forget and turn away,
for them, their days remain -
each day is just another day
and passes all the same.
...

In fields of blue I long to dwell
And frolic ‘neath the sun -
To mingle with the scented air
With each new day begun
...

Soon there will be roses
Adorning gardens fair
Soon there will be roses
Their perfume everywhere
...
