Trudy Diane Rider Poet Rhyme

One Woman's Truth

I believe
           in rainbows, flutes and hummingbirds
           in reveling in little joys
                     in love at first sight
                                hanging on with all your might

I believe
           a couple can achieve their deams
            in hard work and perseverance
                        that faith in a man
                                 helps HIM believe the WE can

I believe
           in the goodness of a man's heart
           in turning the other cheek
                     believing in him
                            When others say he can't win

I believe
           in serenity, courage, and wisdom
           the strength of character to fight
                      a man's conviction
                               can win, over his addiction

I believe
           in a woman's faith, love and steel
           in loving enough to carry
                       the burden for two
                                even with the odds against you

I believe 
           in the sacred vows of marriage
           in to love, honor and cherish
                       till death us do part
                                  even if he breaks your heart

For I believe that hearts can heal
                     and once again be taught to feel.

Trudy Diane Rider June 13, 2016 at 4:50 PM Some times the strength is just a front to cover the fear, but it works until I am truly strong again! Thank you Carrie!!
