      Summer: A Love Story

      Apr 20, 2021

      It is a squalid time. The body grows tired of being a body. Sweat. Always. A thin film of it on the skin. Do not say dewy. Do not say glisten. I dream of endless green. Of wet. Of rain hammering the Earth. Of buds sprouting. I want to insist on life

      The sun was not up when I arose.It lay sleeping, the clouds were close.The sky was shot with pink and grey,With a hint of promise of a new day. Spring was coming to Bow Lake,With a hint of what the day would make.But now it was a false dawn.All was s

      Nov 26, 2020

      The Christmas season is a mystical one. For me, listening to Christmas carols always adds to the magic, and “Good King Wenceslas” stands out. Its beautiful story of a Christmas miracle dates back centuries. It may not be the most popular carol. But i

      Joy

      May 5, 2022

      Remember to think on joy, my love.Remember to think on joy. May it be a steamy, hot bath.Or the incredibly long neck of a giraffe. Crunching a leaf.A crooning song-weep. Sandy shifted, foot-tread whispers.Or the ochre-dusty finger paint, that lingers

      For My Dream Girl - Daniel Zimmermann

      For My Dream Girl

      For My Dream Girl

      By Daniel Zimmermann

      Introduction

      Although I previously published all these poems on the Internet, I still retain the rights. I am republishing because the website on which I previously published them is discontinuing its operations.

      This volume contains three chapters. The first chapter contains poems that I addressed directly to my wife. The second chapter contains poems written at my wife’s request. They were generally used to make homemade Christmas cards or Easter cards or for other special occasions, such as birthdays. The third chapter contains other poems that I have written in recent years. I justify their inclusion in the volume for the following reason. Ever since we were married, all my literary work is dedicated to the girl of my dreams.

      Chapter I: To My Beloved

      My Faithful
