The Sunday Whirl

Let's Rally Around

It is my fervent hope
That we turn to the truth
It is  matter we have  to consider,
We should give serious consideration
Not  just wild imaginations
And I mean it!

A weakness in structure?
Fine! But what of it?
That the trunk could no longer
Support?
Come off  it! 

Just on a vessel  of hope
That sweeps past in gusts
It is a  breeze!

To cloak them over their skin
Blown to dust
And toughen the residue


That is the ultimate aim!

    Hank, I really like this a lot, but this caught my eye ...
    "Just on a vessel of hope
    That sweeps past in gusts
    It is a breeze!" it spoke to me on a very personal level. I am so happy to see you joining in with us over at the whirl.

    I find these wordies very difficult to use as prompts, so I am full of admiration for this achievement. Well done.

    So true, it should be the ultimate aim as you say. We should take strength from each and every hope or any crap that occurs and use it moving forward. Great piece.
