Line Gauthier Poet Free verse

Listen to poem:

At Times I Wonder

i could never
at least i don’t think so
but at times i wonder

tonight more than ever
i’m feeling the angst
of troubled times

my inner tower
trembling
maybe even crumbling

shaken to the core
i get a grip of myself
remembering to be strong 

though at times i may wonder
i know i could never give up
i could never give in

Gershon Wolf June 9, 2020 at 11:09 PM That stumbling, hesitating, gnawing of fears feeling so honestly, so sincerely expressed. Applicable for all times too, at least for me. 'Man' is a vulnerable animal, plagued with a mind, a conscience, and a sense of history, never knowing what lies around the corner... :) Line Gauthier June 10, 2020 at 12:14 AM Thanks for your much appreciated visit and comment, Gershon.

Rhonda Johnson-Saunders June 9, 2020 at 8:24 PM Well-penned, Line! At least we know we're not alone in the battle...better to share the feelings, pray, and then keep on fighting. Blessings to you, Rhonda xx Line Gauthier June 10, 2020 at 12:05 AM Thanks for your much appreciated visit and comment, Rhonda.

Jenish Somadas June 9, 2020 at 12:50 AM Line, you gracefully depicted a confused mind wondering what to wonder.. Tough times required great strength to hold.. May God help you to hold your inner tower strong.. Line Gauthier June 9, 2020 at 1:25 AM Thanks, my heart goes to people who have a tendency for depression.

Timothy Mcguire June 9, 2020 at 12:43 AM So well spoken, I too have these fears. But we come from tough stock and we are a tough generation. We are fighters! Line Gauthier June 9, 2020 at 1:24 AM Very true - thanks.
