Foundation
To be willing
to put a crack
On solid foundations,
would I not be
Too dumb, too stupid,
too shallow
To hurt a loyal heart, proven
To be resolved, faithful, true;
Free spirited
yet long-suffering
Willingly facing
challenges with you?
Loyalty! Honesty!
Dedication!
Much too rare these days
While a few nice words and
Fleeting moments of glee
Floats everywhere
Like a hailstorm
Bombarding us daily
out here in cyberspace!
to put a crack

Much too rare these days
While a few nice words and

Bombarding us daily

Kathy, U.S.A.
Thanks for dropping by and thank you too for sharing your thoughts. It's the last verse of a poem I wrote sometime in 2018. I wasn't sure how to express myself then. I can't write poems, I simply just right lines to express a deep-seated feeling most of the time. So I am never sure if it is okay to post or not.
It's rather late but Happy New Year, I let Christmas and the New Year pass by without me getting involved this time. Nu and I did not celebrate any of the festivities out of respect for the tragic situation Australia was going through at that time due to the bushfires. Part of the Philippines had to go through the Taal Volcano eruption too and I simply could not be in any kind of festive mood with all these happening all at once. Hence I missed my annual greeting post for poets old and new here at the corner. I hope you had a great start of the year, I wish you all the very best in 2020!
Always
