Honesty Rises

Misty gray skies are only a disguise In these passing moments to be As if hope skipped away with the sun Can’t there be trust with good reason? Easy, simply, knowing the sun will return Because your words are genuine How easy it can be to live in love With an open heart in simple ways When honesty rises with each sunrise Shining bright enough to last through Anything, everything, everlasting Storms will rumble around outside Without ever destroying what is within The strongest ride the storms together When love is giving based on sacrifice Sharing colors of every beautiful shade In waves of kisses across the expanse Of an ocean pulled not by the moon, but us Heidi Sands 5/25/17

Elegantly expressed poem, Heidi. Esp loved the last two lines ... in waves of kisses across the expanse of an ocean pulled not by the moon, but us. Very powerfully poetic. Your pen flexes a diamond tipped heart. Leaving the reader w/an indelible, unforgettable mark. True poetess you are. Stellar poetry. Love and hugs to you always.

setting aside my general distaste for love I can tell you that you've written a lovely poem. I echo what Chris said - the last line really ties it together. Nice work

A beautiful poem that speaks truth my friend. No storm is too much to outwait if you have love by your side. Oh and that last line...amazing. I loved it.
