THE TRUTH, THE PLAIN TRUTH.
There's doubtless beauty in plain truth,
gold spun above the stars own roof,
serving thus, make false words uncouth
embroiders a web of conceit by guile aloof;
Truth bows not down to manipulated lies,
't'is but pen scribed by timeless poetic laws,
the stoic heart, straight of limb applies,
antique written, unblemished, without flaws,
yet by pomposity, oft called naive simplicity,
truth, dignifies love for man's common good,
nurturing, fond realms of true brotherhood,
illustrates well, virtues jewel woven integrity,
Truth's own truth, sacred, undeniable,
free life's shackles by love unimpeachable.

The truth laid out as is is an understatement to say the least.
But beauty expressed in all simplicity is AZ true as we can bare.
Thanks Phil for the share.
That is a very important quality I look for in a friend. Your relatives you can't do anything about. But to be my friend, honesty and truthfulness is a requirement!
Enjoyed your poem - thanks for sharing!
