Hoping For Love and Trust

Fretting Over his lies Trust not Trusting Never again Now wise Wisdom Comes with life I learned Learning To share my heart Cautious Caution on longest days yields peace Peaceful Flowing waters Bring hope Hopeful Fretting no more Heart's strong Strength builds Tower of faith Rising Sunrise Brightens dark days Light shines Shining My stride returns With love Loving Not enabling Trust earned For Richard's Mussetle Train Contest, 12/1/14

Hi Rhonda, I like a poem that is packed and compact with wisdom, such is evidenced here. Your last stanza, "loving, not enabling, trust earned" is powerful, potent and so true. Congratulations on your well deserved win. I rated it a 7. Have a great week end. Earl
