At Times I Wonder

Listen to poem:

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 AP: 3rd place 2020 Posted on June 8, 2020

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... :)

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, 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..

So well spoken, I too have these fears. But we come from tough stock and we are a tough generation. We are fighters!
