Truth

tell me, tell me I implore
tell me, though the rains fail
and hoar frost lies forever more

tell me, yet, the truth is clear
just as the comet leaves a trail
we have faith in the words we hear

tell me!! just to reassure
beside truth all things are pale
even that which we must endure

Much truth within the frame work of your triolet Charles. Truth is a lost art these days I am beginning to see. Enjoyed this tremendously.
