d’Verse Poets Pub – Quadrille #113: Blanket Us
A Woeful World
If I could, I would cover this
World with a warm blanket
to ward off coldness that
has settled around it, to smother
flames of hate that burn and scorch.
I would wrap it around quivering
shoulders, to comfort and
wipe away bitter tears.
I think many of us share this sentiment. If only life could be so simple. Lovely words.

Yes to that. We need that kind of compassion as a cure for such hard-hearted times.

Stand by; we’re gonna need this. We ALREADY need this, but too many of us refuse to see it. Wrap me, Mama.

It seems that we only have darkness in the world these days… despite the fact that we are mostly fine.
