Leslie Ledoux Poems

Gathering around the waning fire
Trying to stop the shaking
Amid life's quagmire
...

What is family
Is it in the blood
Or is it in the genes?
What does it look like
...

My favorite place to go is the beach.
The soft sand tickles my feet;
but, oh my gosh it is hot, hot, hot.
I dash for the water and take a seat!
...

Despair rides on the wings of an eagle
It travels to and fro
In all directions, it does fly
No one knows just where it will go
...
