I watch you grow each day, embracing a world sometimes cold lacking in luster of gleam and shine clawing and scratching white washed surfaces coated with the hypocrisy of faces contorted those knowing not heart..... It is only greed they suffer from, endowing themselves in lies fulfilling a need for their next fix obtaining a thrill inflicting their will; upon the weak upon the meek and you... regard not what the world throws your way... come what may I watch you grow each day stronger, indomitable the will to survive. after a fall I get back up, move on 'cause the past is the past and theres no tomorrow if remaining in still waters while the river flows on ~dsmith |

Bullies in forms undistinguishable cheat and label, lying subtle feel coarse liquid pouring down swallow bitter gall. Damn it all, bereft of solemn promises fading away rapid gone like the clouds, away from tainted smiles of hidden daggers firm handshake, another trap hypocrites all, drowning Yes ... ... seen them all |

Wow. I agree, this is powerful, Donna. I also enjoyed the format and flow in this with the sequential rhymes centred part way through. Nicely done, much enjoyed this. ![]() PS. I like your dog in your picture too! ![]() Best wishes and hugs, /Kit |

I smile when I read your replies and thank you each for in them I am blessed. This is a personal favorite to me because it was originally written as I observed my daughter becoming a strong individual (tho' sometimes stubborn) and that was the word that popped into my head and this was the outcome of that thought. Thank you, each. I am thankful for the touch here. ![]() Ya'll are just great. after a fall I get back up, |
