Emile Pinet Poet Rhyme

Trust

A mother holds her infant to her breast,
sucking safely; its fears are laid to rest.
A primal link bonding mother and child;
a sharing of hearts, instinctive and wild.

A soldier huddles in the stench of death,
determined to fight to his final breath.
Lives rely on his bravery today,
and despite his fears, he's resigned to stay.

A dad encourages his toddler son,
holding his hands till his first step is won.
With his arms outstretched, he coaches him on
as he waddles forth, inhibitions gone.

A virgin bride feeling anxious inside,
indulges temptations she's long denied.
While in their bed, she surrenders her will
to her husband and love's intimate thrill.

A common thread stitches these souls in place:
an ethereal bond; time can't erase.
Believe what you will on matters discussed:
Humanity's heart has evolved through trust.
