Questions?
By meadowcroft1964

Writing begun as a quest to see

Answers to questions such as why me?

Though not consciously, It was then 

That words spewed forth 
 
Vile, rank, poisonous turds

Disguised in the cloak of poatic verse
 
Hidden for years show once again

Cleaned and cleansed by the power of the pen

Flawed pearls of wisdom residing for all time

Held within the realm of amateur rhyme

I found the brutal honesty and vulnerability of this piece very touching, particularly the line "Cleaned and cleansed by the power of the pen", and the image of "Flawed pearls of wisdom." I believe in both, and I think that's all (and the best) any writer has to offer of himself or herself. I'm moved by this piece, Violet.
