Muddy River

Don’t fall in the muddy river Your strength is not meant to shiver You must understand things hidden Corruption decides the forbidden For the truth to be known to you But, evidence proves it is true Be careful in your quick belief Of knowledge stolen like a thief Evil spreads like a wildfire By corrupt who hide and conspire But, when numbers of us do look… Facing the lies by any crook It’s we who have the righteous power With good actions to empower Together it is us who rise To expose all those in disguise Heidi Sands 6/8/21

Your striking poem is an apt warning to beware of imposters, fraudsters and double-faced persons...those who wear sheep's clothing to trick us into believing what they say. ~ Hope you are keeping well my friend. Regards // paul

Hello Heidi … corrupted people most certainly muddy the waters convincing us if they can of being honest citizens doing a public duty - nicely written Heidi - Lindsay
