Gershon Wolf Poet Couplet

Time 'Twill Mend

The long red line, ma'am, atop your hand
   a mere scratch, sir, time 'twill mend

That growth all swollen on your neck
   just a wart, infected a speck

O! you gasped and clutched your heart!
   ~ bled once, 'tis torment to restart

L Milton Hankins June 14, 2021 at 5:08 PM Interesting poem, Gershon. I have certainly felt some of these emotions with a damaged heart. Thanks for sharing. L Milton Hankins June 14, 2021 at 7:07 PM I think I shared too much this afternoon, so I deleted the poem I spent most of the afternoon working on. You may or may not have read it. No comments, and I understood why. Gershon Wolf June 14, 2021 at 5:34 PM Hey, thanks for sharing your emotions, Milt! :) gw
