Brooklyn’s Bites



poetry from the heart

These were not written by me, but by a writer I know who shall remain nameless. I stole them! ;-) they are great and decided to share them with everyone!

and i sat and gazed upon her
so loving and wonderful
so right and true
i well up with tears at the single thought
that i will keep her happy
until our years are many
i feel a void has been filled
my love is here
all is well

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

ponder this if you will
the stance of a man
not famous nor popular
not poor nor rich
not a man of much culture
just an ordinary man
up at 6am
on come the slippers
automatic grind and brew of a medium roast hot and fresh at 6:15
as many might do he gathers his thoughts
he sits and gazes at the world
thoughts are few as sleep loosens its grasp
another day of the same daily living
small recalliberating variations providing a lucrative front

  1. These poems are awesome…if these belong to a friend of yours please inform he or she that they have a voice that ought to be heard and to put there face with their poetry.

    I read your comment…and I have to be honest when I tell you that by you saying you stole these poems..makes me really uncomfortable…people who write work extremely hard…so I am hoping this is a friend of yours who is just shy .

      i appreciate the “defending” of my friend… but these poems were written for me and given to me. i say I stole them as a joke for when he reads the blog today. my friend is truly talented and deserves all the recognition he gets!
