Garrett Bass Poet Rhyme

A plea

Whole world's gone to hell, 
Here I sit in jail, 
Cold floors touch my hands, 
As tears flow out in strands, 
God help me please, 
I'm a product of the breeze, 
A leaf gone with the flow, 
Thinking this is where I should go, 
I did not show Grace but stone,
These choices were my own, 
Pray this isn't too late for me, 
Please God hear my plea!

Alesia Leach March 1, 2025 at 7:28 PM Your poem has a raw and emotional quality that makes it compelling. The desperation and regret come through strongly, especially with the imagery of cold floors, flowing tears, and being a drifting leaf with no direction. The contrast between "Grace" and "stone" is particularly powerful, emphasizing the realization of past hardness and mistakes. Garrett Bass March 2, 2025 at 10:57 AM Thank you so much Alesia! Your analysis is on point and greatly appreciated!!

Oliver Mckeithan February 27, 2025 at 6:46 PM Powerful poem Garrett. Hitting rock bottom is tough. That is usually when we cry out to the Lord. Garrett Bass February 27, 2025 at 7:35 PM Thank you so much Oliver! Yes we definitely need those troughs so we can realize how great the peaks are!
