Gershon Wolf Poet Alliteration

A Path Fraught With Fear

A path fraught with fear
    craven cowardice
  trembling, dissembling unsettling

  Hovering high above the highest hill
    beyond Imagination's borders
  Out of reach, out of touch, unaligned

   Hope's lost highway hesitant
     arriving ahead of time
   illusions intricate, impotent
     'Home' - why do we delay

Daniel Henry Rodgers October 27, 2023 at 6:09 AM Hello Gershon: You beautifully capture the essence of a journey filled with fear and uncertainty, yet your poem also hints at the hope that lies beyond the horizon. Despite the trembling and dissembling, there’s a sense of anticipation for what lies ahead, a testament to the human spirit’s resilience in the face of adversity. Blessings, Daniel Gershon Wolf October 28, 2023 at 7:40 PM Thanks for the thorough and perceptive summary, Daniel. Appreciated! ~ Gershon
