Tammy Ol Poet Free verse

Olive Twig

I was feeling like I was beginning to forgive
I had started to make peace

So, I decided to reach out
Test the waters
Extend an olive twig

And within the exchange of only a few words
You snapped it in two

Gershon Wolf October 18, 2020 at 8:01 PM Isn't that the way it works in this life?!... If you had extended a branch, he would have sawed it off, I guess... Hope and Faith, Tammy. Tammy Ol October 19, 2020 at 7:59 AM Hi Gershon, Yes, you are probably very right there! Thank you for reading and I appreciate your comment :)
