Notes About The Poem

" ANGER " MY PHOTO, ©

Anger

Oh, anger,

You mindless voracious beast
 
That are able to devour at an instance
 
What one's temperance took a lifetime

To build,

I abhor you!

Yes, hate is a strong word I agree, however, here it is necessary to combat Anger, dearest Ann-Lise. Thank you so much. I have missed you. Hugs xxx
