Secrets...
Truths people fail to tell
dance in the dark
like shadows on the wall...
waiting.

Secrets...
Wicked little poltergeists,
delighting in the mischief...
or disaster
they may cause.

You have to watch out for those secrets, they always come back to haunt you in one way or another. Good one Ida.

Indeed. I suppose some secrets are good, but those ones don't rise in memory anywhere near those that've hurt. You said a lot with just a few words. Well done.

Secrets are okay, it's just the oh so soft whispering as I walk by that bother me . . .

You tell the truth, dear Ida! You have an incredible ability of bringing into the sunlight hidden aspects of life. Smart lady Poetess!

This is as sharp as a dagger
