Gershon Wolf Poet Light Verse

A Floor's Lament

I've been under attack ever since I was finished
  Stepped on, scuffed up, and muddied
    Thrice I was flooded
      Twice I was bloodied

Graciously this pounding I take
  'Cuz without me your feet'd really ache

Gershon Wolf October 24, 2018 at 9:29 AM Thank you for your kind words... Merely elevating the common, ordinary things in life, as it were... ~ Gershon

Tom Cunningham October 23, 2018 at 11:48 PM It's been said you can write poetry about anything. Now the humble floor gets honoured. Nice write Gershon. Tom. Gershon Wolf October 24, 2018 at 9:04 AM Well, after all, "Don't tread on me," was the on the colonial flag in 1776, back when you and I were … (NOT that old!). So, I guess it's ok to write about a floor. ~ Gershon
