Two Poems from our Family Poetry Collection

 
 
Letter to my Grandma
   
Author: Marinela Reka
   
Poem:
Letter to my Grandma
   
  I got a blank paper
And started to write
Out of the blue came a tear
And I felt something inside

I demanded the tear to go away
“Because I have a problem and I don't want you”
But the tear said no
“Because I have a problem too”

I wanted to write down
“That I miss my Nana you see”
And the tear replayed
“That's the same problem with me”

The tear and me
Didn't get along at all
I wrote the letter and it would make it wet
Every time it would fall

“Oh you naughty tear,
Why did you come out, did I say you can?'
The tear says, “I am sad,
Because I really miss my Nan”

So me and the tear together
Did not write much just a sentence or two
“Grandma! Please come and visit me
Because I am really missing you.”

GAME OVER
   
Author: Stacy Stiles
   
Poem: GAME OVER
   

The game is over, you win; I willingly throw in my hand
The cards have been stacked in your favor, exactly as you planned
I know the stakes were high and maybe I folded way too fast
But I no longer want to play this game; a game I know will never last

I’ve already lost too much and more I cannot spare
So no longer deal the cards my way, the game was never fair
I’ll count my blessings early and leave this table of deceit
For a game already prejudged is a game I cannot defeat

A sore loser I’m not; I’m just tired of a game with the same outcome
Petty to most of the players; highly important to the lecherous some
I would have stayed in had the cards been properly shuffled right
Instead I saw the cheating displayed, clearly within my sight

So game over, I fully renege and completely throw in my hand
I’m starting my own new game; one where it’s not already preplanned
Fair, consistent and honest; my game will entail all of this
Entertaining each new player; this table of love will never dismiss
