There are days you cannot trust.
Like people they lure you with
Gleaming smile offering warmth
Only to turn on you with cold shoulder
When you venture too far from shelter

Today is one of those
Breaking early with radiance,
Diamonds spread on sheets of field
She stretched out in promise
Then rose slowly allowing me to watch
Her begin to practice her wiles
On all that ventured out with no care

There are days you cannot trust
What your eyes see
Or heart longs for
Because the day turns these things
Into weapons against you

Today is one of those

Ron

Some days the skin is more susceptible to the weather outside.  I'm glad to see you here this morning with your poetry that I always like to read.

Mind's eye stores the truth.
Hidden words between the lines
Reveal if only's.

Like the baggage we check in and hope gets lost?  
Sometimes we just have to wing it!!!  
Enjoyed this Cpat~

(big hugggssssss) This is so very sad but true, sweet friend, I too have faced this kind of dilemma so many times and there will always be those that we can ot trust but there will also be friends, even if just a few, that will always be true and loyal to our hearts! (sigh) This is wonderfully sad but fabulous, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Ron, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
