simple mask of poverty gilded in rows of darkness minted in reality causes the mind to regress mining in the cavern’s soul gems of diversity hewn in nature’s netting letting economy’s dole empty into string-drawn coffers leather holders of pieces gold recovering the resonance told of withdrawn offers to loose the chains of mediocrity |

There was a wealth of meaning in those simple lines. I like the way you say so much with so few words. Thanks for sharing sharyn |

Ah, but those chains of mediocrity can be so hard to break. A wonderfull poem! "Death cannot stop true love, all it can do is delay it for a while" The Princess Bride |
