Never Doubting Love

Life is for the living
giving it our best

and sometimes less is
better: a mouthful, a
tree not fell, an extra 
wife/husband

but hearts should give
their all, never doubting
tributaries of love

though often ponds on earth

are oceans up above

Love is everything...I am certain your loving family has a lot to do with your strength and determination to overcome diversity. Blessings my friend. Ila and I are praying for your continued recovery.

Mystic Rose Rose Date: 9/29/2022 2:30:00 PM Hearts should always give their all but often they don't cuz of fear pain and distrust. Very well penned Joe, Login to Reply Joe Dimino Date: 9/29/2022 5:29:00 PM I know Rose; been there more times than I like to admit. Wish I knew then what I know know. I hold no grudges. I am certain that I am not the only one with regrets. I wish everyone happiness. Enough opportunity forward that no one look back.
