Gershon Wolf Poet Rhyme

Stitched In Heaven

Sifting streams of gold through my hands
  Sapphire strewn sands from distant lands
Lusty ambition's avaricious reach
   All together rise up to teach --

Polished silver is shiny; bronze basks in the sun
   But humble deeds, stitched in Heaven
      Of Eternity are spun

Paul Callus June 21, 2019 at 12:27 PM The frailty of human beings can easily allow us to fall prey to praise and outward glitter, but common sense (as shown in this poem) talks a different language! It would be wise to heed the message of the end lines. Regards // paul Gershon Wolf June 21, 2019 at 1:16 PM Thank you for your insightful comment and your kind words about the last few lines. Greatly appreciated, Paul. Best wishes, Gershon
