Don't turn a blind eye to evil nor pretend life is only good Don't turn a blind eye to evil but don't engage in its company. Do rejoice in the goodness around plenty of shines her light bright Do rejoice in the goodness around but existing shadows always play. Not enough to simply praise the good must call out the evil too not enough to simply praise the good. Stand strong, and firm in the light because evil has a mask in pretentious bright.

I agree with your message Miranda.. so true, but evil has a way of manipulating souls... Your poem flows very well..

Miranda, your poem is truly exceptional. It carries a profound message that resonates deeply and is beautifully conveyed through your words. The idea of loving our enemies while deliberately avoiding their presence is an intriguing concept. Blessings

A great poem Miranda with a powerful message. Love the lines, ‘Do rejoice in the goodness around’ ‘ Stand strong and firm in the light’.
