My scaffold
to the heirarchy
of needs
indifferent
and undefined
goals and tranquility
hang high on eye level
self actualsing the potential
and spirit in need
i pretend and bolt comes loose
working hands repair self esteem
the summer envelops the rage i felt
and once more we share the load.

learning each day, for you and i, our paths have met, i've already learnt that you are love.

Hi Gemma,  

Good to see you.  

I liked the whole poem, but the last line
stood out to me....
"and once more we share the load."


Yes, we do need to share the load. It makes
it a lot easier to carry, then, doesn't it?

Hugs to you, friend  
Ethel
