Why I Love Trouble

Sometimes trouble has a mask...
     Behind a cloud there could be a sun for you to bask...                                     
        When trouble found me I felt like I was climbing
                        out of a box that was round...
          Then I closed my eyes and what was once trouble
                         was now a beautiful sound...
           Look close and don't be to quick to judge a face...     
                    Sometimes trouble has a better taste...

Hello Michael -- I like this poem very much. The last line is most intriguing. It makes me wonder, leaves me hanging a bit and wanting more of your words about the 'taste of trouble'. It was nice to hear from you. Thank you for your comments on my poetry. I hope you are well. It was a pleasure to read some of your work today. Love, Deb
