A List of Poems

These are poems I’d like to write

The way the water and the light

Have their synchronicities

In powers and in properties

In the ways that they behave

Both as particles and waves

I’d like to write a poem about

When people came down from the trees

And how the world, without a doubt

Just like now had land and seas

Lakes and rivers, waterfalls

The Sun and the moon and stars at night

They had to make sense of it all

Magic, Religion, Science and Art

In the beginning were all the same

They all began when chattering apes

Began to give things names

I’d like to write a poem about

The history of mankind

An epic piece of massive length

Enough to make you blind

There is love, and death and betrayal

There are battles, very gory

And it covers quite a time span

It’s a truly gripping story

I’d like to write a poem about

Earth and Water and Fire and Air

The earth, of course, where flowers grow

And water that sings to us as it flows

And fire that turns the red meat brown

And the air that’s blowing all around

I’d like to write a poem, and I promise you,

Someday I will

That doesn’t end, but just goes on and on and on until…
