Duped

Fools are we in loves grasp, blind to life's truth, duped. Dreams are but illusions, emotions lie, duped. Life is good just work hard, that's what they say, duped. Now repeat, fooled again, I will always hope. 10/08/16

Very wise words in poem, James. First poem of yours I've read, but your reputation precedes you, sir. You have a strong handle on this poem form. Very strong. Will read more of your work as time goes by Lord willing. Much love and peace to you from the RW (Romantic Warrior.)
