Caren Krutsinger Poet Free verse

I Trust One

I work with sixty adults
    Out of these sixty I trust one

        To keep a confidence


    I had tried to trust two
                But one could not do it


So
 now
 I
   trust 
      one.

M. L. Kiser October 11, 2018 at 7:39 AM Sadly that's the way it goes. I've had people get mad at me because I would not betray someone's secrets. If I promise; I'm a clam. I don't blame you one bit for only telling one. Well penned. Caren Krutsinger October 11, 2018 at 9:34 AM I am always the "last to know" about everything in the school, as I am the one who does not talk. They all know this, so I am happily aware most of the time.

Rhona Mcferran October 10, 2018 at 2:23 PM I know of this from experience... well penned!! Caren Krutsinger October 10, 2018 at 3:05 PM I truthfully have only found one person in each school, and I have worked in seven schools.

Michelle Faulkner October 10, 2018 at 1:41 PM They say a secret between three people is safe only if two are dead (sorry if that's too dark a comment) Caren Krutsinger October 10, 2018 at 1:47 PM Not dark at all, decide-ly correct.
