All Is Well

When lattice of tears dampen gloomy nights, Cutting through a ragged shade, a moondust black Remember me as your protective harbor , a sanctuary With gentle arms outstretched which understand Those woeful cries howling a bullied refrain— For I’ll serenade you with this assurance… never fear Until eve’s warm pillow lays itself down; Then remember me in this unkind world… all is well-- My whisper hums,’ Dear son… you are not alone.” For Silent One's Contest: Nine lines to let them know everything will be fine 7/26/2018

I think at some point most people are bullied in life. When my dad found out I was being bullied, he taught me how to box. Written as the words of a loving mother, nette. Good luck!

You do not look old enough to have a son, so I have no idea whether this is fact or fiction, but if you do have one, he is a lucky child indeed. I feel goosebumps when I read this poem.It is so heartfelt, Nette!
