A Lonely Ledge
A Lonely Ledge
There always appears to be a lonely ledge
We will reach before going over the edge
It really may not be obvious or clear cut
So ask how, when, where, why and what.
In progression, try to answer each word
Listening to way they have been heard
Which must importance be placed upon
And was it actually, deliberately done.
What evolved and eventually did realize
Was things in this world may antagonize
Now hard may have become your heart
Separating and splitting you all apart.
How can we forever feel comfortably?
And full of happiness with jubilee
When a tragedy recently passed by
To forget it how hard we all did try.
James Thomas Horn, Retired Veteran
There are always those things such as
tragedies to mar everything.
