Shane Dickie Poems

How marvelous nature is!

How intelligent and independent!
...

Nothing beats the excitement and expectation
Of the newborn! So much hope - so much happiness!
This is new life - the seeds of union; of love manifested
In the newborn, the loving pieces of a family,
...

Poems are like drops of rain falling from the heavens above,
Poems are shards of wisdom; pieces of granite cleaved
By the hammering of the soul through life's hard lessons
Learned and life's hard lesson's won.
...

Quiet at last!
Soothing serenity permeates the air,
Soundless sacredness seeps into,
Surrounds and sedates me.
...

A sea of people I scan; I then look inside
Myself, I am one of them, there is no difference,
There is no separation in the seams— just one
Huge entity.
...

He loves numbers; he loves to count,
To add, subtract, to multiply and
Divide to borrow, and to arrange,
Equations are his life. To him
...

Determination deeply embeds inside my
Hungry, boiling veins, my heart feeds on
My veins' idea of nourishment, a food
Not edible yet in craving demand.
...

Edges of buildings; defined space, a concern for Architects
The boundaries of Relationships are not so well defined,
They are fuzzy and the alleys are blind.
Edges of broken glass are sharp and jagged;
...

Sadness has a thousand shades,
Happiness had ten; sometimes I
Feel all the sad ones, from low to
Medium and back to myself again.
...

This man is different; he is odd,
This woman is weird; who is behind
The façade.
Cast in shame are these
...
