Line Gauthier Poet Free verse

Humility

resigned
without artifice
the loveliest of virtues

humility

the heart attuned
to gentleness
bared to all

surrendering
heart to heart
secrets divulged

no holds barred
laying it all out
on the table

a most endearing
vulnerable intimacy
redefined dignity

Gershon Wolf May 17, 2019 at 1:34 PM 'without artifice' -- That's the ticket. False humility is worse perhaps than arrogance! Well-penned, Line! :) gw Line Gauthier May 17, 2019 at 1:42 PM Thank you, Gershon, for your most appreciated visit and comment.
