Some poetry I wrote a while back

The Art of Being Me

In the twilight of my day
The only worry I have
Is if I’ll see
The twilight of my tomorrow
Nothing that’s ever promised
Has been a guarantee
This is the art
The art of being me

Cynthia Dockery Allgood

Disillusion

Seeing the world
Through rose-colored glasses
Through guilt-free tears
And sincere fake-smiles
Knowing that as long as you deny
Then it isn’t so

Cynthia Dockery Allgood


I Am a Mother

I am a mother
To a child
Full of life
Giving of love
A touch of doubt
A pinch of resistance
Right in her nature
Mature for her age
Wanting her to learn
Yet stay little
I am a mother
To a child

Cynthia Dockery Allgood
