One Poem by Heather Cox


Lonely Soul

The rivers run deep,
And the waters rush high
With speed and deliberation
Towards my lonely soul.

The water is ice,
Piercing my skin and bones,
But I swing an extra stroke
For every freezing degree.

In this life
You either simply float
Or
fight the current
Or
drown.

O, hollow river,
Wash over my soul.
Steal me to your depths
And keep me company.

{Poem by Heather Cox}

I believe only a woman could have written that. Being overwhelmed by a strong force is not my favourite dream ...

INVITATION

Invited hereby to my site
please be. You see I poems write
and knight like fight and youth alight.
That photo says it. Godly, right?

I want more readers. I want you
to come as if out from the blue
and tell me what I write is true
and make my motivation new.

Why you? This is not spam, God’s dear.
I stand by what I do. I care.
Your senseless love to me I fear.
I mean it. I am good. Take care.
