      Poems Of Life

      Copyright William (Bill) Pratt 2012

      Smashwords Edition

      Poems Of Life

      CALL OF YOUR VOICE.

      AS I WALK DOWN THROUGH THE VALLEY

      AND AROUND THE CLIFFS,

      WITH THE SUN PIERCING THROUGH,

      THE RAIN CLOUDS,

      THE CALL OF YOUR VOICE,

      COMES TO ME CLEAR.

      AS IF I CAN SEE YOU BECKONING ME HOME,

      WITH ALL HASTE.

      THE VISION I SEE THROUGH THE RAIN THAT’S FALLING,

      IS A SIGHT WORTH REMEMBERING,

      AS WE MAKE OUR WAY DOWN.

      FOR SOON WE WILL BE HOME,

      TO ANSWER YOUR CALL

      AND NEVER MORE TO WANDER,

      OUT THERE ALL ALONE.

      A DAY TO REMEMBER

      THE SUN WAS SHINING AND THE WAVES WERE SMALL,

      THE WIND WAS GROWLING AND THE GRASS WAS TALL,

      ON A WIND SWEPT BEACH WE WALKED,

      YOUR COMPANY WAS REFRESHING,

      JUST LIKE THE WIND.

      IT SEEMED WE WERE OBLIVIOUS,

      TO WHAT WE LEFT BEHIND.

      BUT TIME DID NOT STAND STILL FOR LONG,

      AS WE HAD TO GO BACK TO WHERE WE BELONG.

      BUT WE HAD ONE THING IN SEPTEMBER

      AND THAT WAS ONE LOVELY DAY TO REMEMBER.

      HAYWIRE

      ONE DAY MY THOUGHTS WENT HAYWIRE,

      I COULD NOT CONTROL THEM SO.

      MY WORK WENT STILL.

      I WISHED THAT TIME STOOD STILL,

      ALSO LATER, WHEN MY MIND CAME BACK TO ME,

      WHAT LOVELY THOUGHTS, LINGERED WITH ME.

      I WISHED THAT YOU
