Ragged Edges
by Paulette Weaver
copyright 12-03-2001


Age Rating: 13 to 127

 
It isn't easy sometimes
to like everyone you meet.
Still, you give the benefit
of the doubt to most people
on the street.

You keep an open mind, but
actions speak so loudly.
They often act not so kind
and say words not so proudly.

As we age we try to mellow,
although, some will never learn.
We bear their innuendos, and
know respect they'll never earn.

In the noise outside our silence
the voices come to say,
that the way we treat our
neighbor, is a reflection of our
real way.

Very well done, Paulette. It flows and flows rules of stanza perfect. The message is strong and one that I live by "what goes around comes around." I agree, how we treat our neighbours is a reflection of our own true self.

Nicely done, Paulette! I knew that you'd do the rhyme thing all right. Great poem and the meaning behind it is very good, too. Jackie
