People seeing without watching eyes
Hearing ears can not catch lies
Mass motions getting nowhere fast
Those in front really are last.

Dying souls walk beyond life
Troubled teens transcending strife
Battered spouses healing with tears
Pools of salt water fears

Evil and good mixing taste
All harvested, none to waste

Enjoyed. Thank you for sharing.

I wish to become a great poet some day, but it will only come in time. Til then, I shall write my poems, and wait.

Thank you, all
I tend to not bother with challenges
Since I am very seldom without words to write,
So I am pleased that you enjoyed my effort here.
I am honored by your praises.
