"Trust vs Mistrust" a part we played from seven months old. When we trust, we open our hearts. You were no fool, just being natural. But you said "goodbye"! When your heart heals, move on my dear. Jesus cares.

I wrote this in the pub last Saturday with 4 other poems - my fave of the bunch was the Sammy starfish poem which I love:-) I just write from the heart James and just try to entertain:-) Hugs Jan xx

G'day Jan... nicely rhymed Jan with the innocent party blaming themselves - Lindsay

There are always 2 sides to the truth Lindsay. I went for a short poem here I thought it had more impact:-) Hugs jan xx

Right on, Jan. No one feels it more than the poet who feels more intensely than the person beside him/her. HUgs! Kim :)

Ha ha I very much doubt that will ever happen Kim - what would I call a book by me - I guess it would have to be 'musings of a bird brain' .. that is a reference to a nickname I have lol but it will never be divulged lol:-) hugs jan xx

Oh very good one Jan. Short but succinct with the tone of betrayal ringing out loud and clear. ~Janet

I thought just a short poem had more impact than adding any more verses:-) hugs Jan xx

Hello Jan . . . This one's right to the point for sure. A sad recurring theme for many couples in life -- and, of course, always painful. A "7"!! Best Always, Gary

Thanks Gary - it was a deliberately short write i thought it would have more impact that way:-) Hugs Jan xx
