Solace of Words

The night protects anxiety From day's intrusive glare As walls protect entirety From those outside of here The trees protect by standing tall From roamers of my path As Knowing Ones protect my call From prejudice some have My words protect by helping me To understand my thought As Knowing words protect and see Without my mind is fraught

Great poem Clive! The last stanza for me, very pertinent. Writing helped me deal with my grief, after losing my wife to cancer.

oh Mark, sorry to hear that, for me it was depression and mental illness issues, but thanks so much for taking the time to comment
