"On my journey through life, I have met people like weeds and flowers; I let all the weeds wither; and gather up the flowers in a precious bouquet." Quote _ Constance
I have had many kinds of friends, in this life of twists, dips and bends; and have given many so called friends their ends, after looking deep with my souls zoom lens; I have seen there is no hope for us that blends, and no chance of healing that mends ! Oh, my foolish heart has always been willing, to accept people into my heart with love filling; but, I have found often they are just not joy instilling, in fact, their behaviour and actions are chilling; and all friendship on my part killing ! So, my bleeding heart lets go of the weeds, for I cannot accept their evil deeds; letting real friends grow and bloom like planted seeds, and my "true blue friends" I wear like a string of beautiful beads ! Yes, my foolish heart has been broken lots of times, but, with friends that matter my heart and soul chimes; and even if I only have a few friends our love climbs ! Truth, I do not feel stupid for having a foolish heart, for in life and this journey some scars are part ! So, I wear my scars with pride like a Zen warrior ! _______________________ April 02, 2022 Poetry/Rhyme/My Foolish Heart Copyright Protected, ID 04-1445-071-02 All Rights Reserved, 2022, Constance La France Written for the Premier contest, My Foolish Heart $ sponsor, L MILTON HANKINS, Judged 4/04/2022

I surely can relate. Sometimes friends are not friends at all. They cannot wait to ruin you? Or so they think. Many have FAT heads and iCE COLD hearts. “ Let them go, they were born to go” I Forgot which poet wrote that. Pangie xx
