Angela Crabtree Poet Rhyme

Prisoner

I don't believe in getting angry
and arguing over things
yet there are people who do sadly
as does a bee that stings

why can't people be friends
and love as the Bible says
instead a relationship ends
tis what it does

are we doomed to this behavior
or will it one day lend
finding success and not failure
in the message we send

weary as I walk alone 
in my reasoning 
though heavy I carry the stone
tired as I'm weakening

soon strength I'll regain
as time passes through
and joy will remain
for now my time is due

Jennifer Proxenos April 5, 2021 at 11:17 AM Tempers flare when opinions are different we have seen this happening in politics between the Democrats and Republicans, it happens so often (sadly) within families which is much sadder - the truths is difficult to bear and can be a burden - 'why can't people be friends and love as the Bible says'. Deep and thought provoking write Angela, Hugs and blessings Jennifer. Angela Crabtree April 9, 2021 at 6:06 PM Thank you, Jennifer :)
