Waiting

From Sarah Revere’s point of view.

Waiting for the knowledge,

Is father quite dead?

We ponder in our sewing,

Feeling much dread,

Others come to visit,

But what can they do?

We walk about the house,

And do our daily chores,

Trying to not have time to think,

For what will our brains do?

Put dampeners on our heads,

Keep our thoughts contained,

Waiting to know,

Waiting.

Poem- With One Hundred Rooms

Here is a poem I wrote:

With One Hundred Rooms

With one hundred rooms,

Secrets unfold,

Some locked away,

But others are bold,

If you cry in the night,

Someone might hear,

Far away through the fear,

Is it life,

Or is it the wind,

Or it might just be my dream.

Poem- The Friendship Rose

The Friendship Rose

Bright and cheery,
Flowers grow,
Then they fall,
Low and low,
Darken, darken,
Is all they do,
Until one stands,
The friendship rose,
As long as you plant,
The others will grow,
Up into the sky.
