Alexis Y. Poet Triolet

Hey Mr Or Ms Bully

Did you forget how you felt when you were bullied too?
You felt small and insignificant; you’re not healed yet,
Remember, learn and change your ways by being true.
Did you forget how you felt when you were bullied too?
Leopard, change your spots to live without regret,
Sowing seeds of kindness is likened to the morning dew.
Did you forget how you felt when you were bullied too?
You felt small and insignificant; you’re not healed yet.

Beryl Edmonds May 25, 2022 at 6:21 PM Hi Alexis, one never forgets being bullied and it takes a long time to get over it, sometimes never. An inspirational Triolet, well done… Belle

Joseph May May 23, 2022 at 7:11 PM They never seem to learn, spots still there, Very nicely penned Alexis

Andrea Dietrich May 23, 2022 at 10:31 AM very nicely expressed. I like how you did it in triolet form. Wonderful message, dear.

Judy Ball May 22, 2022 at 9:46 AM People bully others for many different reasons and yes some of them were bullies and became a bully so as to keep from being bullied. I remember being bullied at school when I was a kid. I refused to let them see me cry or think me scared. I walked with my head held high and never let them see my discomfort. But it did mark me for life. I'm not very trusting of others and my best friends are my pets. Good write my friend. God Bless, JB

Deb M May 22, 2022 at 8:45 AM So many different reasons why people bully others….insecurities, inadequacies or just plain meanness…..we human beings are complex creatures….not acceptable though whatever the reason. Great poem Alexis! Debx

Evelyn Judy Buehler May 21, 2022 at 7:42 PM Your poem's message about not passing along the pain of having once been bullied, is very valuable and beneficial, Alexis. A wonderful triolet! :)

Rico Leffanta May 21, 2022 at 11:16 AM Bullies are just as afraid of being hurt as everyone else; their shield is frequently just hot air. Aloha!

Tom Cunningham May 21, 2022 at 5:49 AM Usually bullies are just attention seekers unaware of the misery that they cause others. Enjoy your weekend Alexis. Tom Alexis Y. May 21, 2022 at 7:12 AM Hi Tom, That is true. But in some cases bullies were the victim of bullying too. I appreciate your continued support. Have a nice day and weekend:-) Alexis
