Larry Bradfield Poet Rhyme

An Abandoned Quest

Today I hear a clear sound coming forth
A scraping of shovels digging my grave
I abandon my quest to save this Earth -
One tear falls - it was never mine to save

Line Gauthier September 20, 2019 at 9:11 AM Thank goodness some people think it's their responsibility to save the world. Sure it's a battle they can't win but what a worthy cause and of course they always succeed to make this world a better place. Lovely tribute to everyone out there who wants to leave this world a better place. Bravo, Larry. Larry Bradfield September 21, 2019 at 7:35 AM What a nice compliment, Line! Thank you.
