Letters stories tell

Folder: 
Cries in the night

typewriter keys strike hard and fast

     sharp black marks slightly moist

on crisp clean papers so snowy white

     lines of symbols that have no form

 

black and white does colors show

     golds and silvers and blues and greens

black darkness of night and golden light of day

     snow capped peaks in sky’s of blue

 

sports cars quickly race and motorcycles curve

     asphalt black and hard and auburn curls in the breeze

motors loudly roar and soft leaps flutter

     wind it rushes by with a scent of flowers

 

sharp clean lines corners form

     flowing curves both soft and firm

clean angles sharp and some obtuse

     shows us things we cannot see

 

painting landscapes within the mind

     tall green trees fluttering leaves

orchids roses and columbines

     bees that hum and birds that fly

 

tell timeless stories of girls and boys

     of young love and its joys

of picnics in the summer sun

     harsh cold beaches when it’s done

 

sharp clean pictures in the mind

     music sweet in all its forms

of each emotion known to man

     from black letters on paper white
