False Assumptions

It was jealousy, but not for love A midget's fear inits ego's web That some other self should prove A better surfer on the ebb. And so with lack of all attention Attained, she set a about To poison the water in vexation Where both swam ere all doubts. If only she knew could fly too She would put something for wizards in the toxic brew. Those false assumptions did hurt Though, but could not stop the destiny from his birth.

A very interesting poem this one is, David. Are you a wizard? I'll answer that...a poetry wizard... Yes! I am left pondering, here. (Thinking is good-thanks.) Someone "out to get" another-jealousy Great write, David. It would be wonderful if instead of jealousy, one poured out praises. Then, look inside themselves seeing wonderful God given gifts. We are given different, wonderful gifts as God's creations. Us. Keep writing, dear friend...and commenting. I appreciate you. Love, Dane
