Lin Lane Poet Ballad

I Am True Blue

I am true blue
Loyal to you

When your heart cries out in sorrow
I will shelter you from your fears
keep your eyes from spilling their tears
I will steadfastly staunch their flow

I will shelter you from your fears
shield you from and an evil foe
raise your spirits when they are low
keep your eyes from spilling their tears

I am true blue
I will shelter you from your fears
until your smile begins to glow
keep your eyes from spilling their tears
Loyal to you

Loyal to you
I am true blue

Caren Krutsinger December 8, 2021 at 8:44 AM This is more than enough for anyone to hope for " I will shelter you from your fears shield you from and an evil foe raise your spirits when they are low" Lin Lane December 8, 2021 at 2:30 PM What a friend we'd have in such a person. I'm glad you've commented on another of my writes. Thanks, Caren.

John Hamilton December 7, 2021 at 8:40 AM Lovely write Lin, truly comforting knowing there is someone loyal out there, the world is so cold! Lin Lane December 7, 2021 at 9:46 AM Yes, it is, John. People only care about themselves and have a 'what's in it for me' attitude. Thank you for adding your insight.

Bill Baker December 7, 2021 at 7:31 AM This was a "Hero" poem to me. The protector and comforter. Enjoyed the read, Lin. Blessings ~ Smiles Bill Lin Lane December 7, 2021 at 9:45 AM I wasn't sure if my purpose came through since it's a new form for a contest, but I'm sure you got my point. Thank you, Bill.
