                    Life is full of such disappointments in people
                
                and those of us who love and give them chances are called simple fools.  But we are holy fools, instead, not valuing what the world values.  We see, in its victories, defeats of the soul, and, in its defeats, love triumphant.

                Your closing line(s) to your post usually bring your entire poem into focus for me - as was the case today.  You definitely write with a great deal of passion....

                Great wordplay ~ imagery is powerful --- and with your typical 'wisdom' ~ 


Elyse ~~~ Write on Jen...

                Jen this is great... as always.  I have missed reading you, sorry, but things were complicated,  I intend to remedy that :-) I hope you are feeling OK. Take care of you .

                    Wow Jen... Excellent!
                
                I see that NiteTide has already said that, and I hate to be repetitive of others, but I can't think of a more appropriate word.  
Great work, as always!
