    My most recent one but not written for contest. Perhaps it can be used for future contest.



    <center>Empty Mailbox

    Papa, the mail box is empty again
    Every day we walk down the road
    Hoping to see something from Berlin
    In that little box that holds so much hope

    It’s just a little white box
    At the end of our driveway
    On a post the color of a fox
    Address is 101 Sunset Highway

    The red flag is up today
    So the mailman knows to stop by
    He doesn’t have much to say
    No letter from you, he doesn’t know why

    Papa, every day we send you a note
    And pray you are receiving them
    All of us contribute in the hope
    You’ll see that each one is truly a gem

    We ask God every day for your safe return
    So, you hurry home or try to send a note
    Because the crank on the car is hard to turn
    Mama misses you and it’s hard for her to cope!

    Tyr ... go read the comment on this one. I used the word God and I knew someone would notice and respond.
    Already done. Great new poems my friend. Also sent pms there this morn to a dozen friends there to check out your poetry and make you welcome. -Tyr

    So, you are my benefactor! Thank you. The comments are very heartwarming. I've been perusing poems. I find that I go down the rabbit hole ... way too many poems to read. I just have to ready the first stanza and my mind starts down it's own tangent a couple of the words and then I'm up all night.

    You woke a sleeping beast!
    If the freedom of speech is taken away
    then dumb and silent we may be led,
    like sheep to the slaughter.


    George Washington (1732-1799) First President of the USA.

    Sassy your poetry reveals a true poet's heart, soul and great talent, IMHO.
    Your poetry reveals a clearness of vision, depth and beauty that is in harmony with your soul.
    Add to that, the fact that it also inspires and reveals kindness, love and natural perception of the world- both its good, beauty, mystery and even its darkness.
    You my friend are, without any doubt in my mind, a gifted and true poet!--Tyr
