I Shall Never

I shall never avoid emotional pains or swallow their teary refrain – though I refuse to tote their stain. I decline to record my mistakes on any lined journal page - for errors serve as my life's sage. ... CayCay Excerpt from "Corner of My Time" July 18, 2019

You certainly do not beat round the bush, CayCay. Past mistakes and heartache are things which we can learn from. You made a good choice for this contest. Regards // paul

A wonderful write which is so true, you are so down to earth my dear friend, you are solid and someone that can be relied upon - I respect your poetry as much as love it - we certainly should learn from our mistakes, let someone who has not made a mistake cast the first stone - as Connie says below, we grow from them! Hugs, Jenny.
