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.

Write a poem to the world
~~
A Mended World
you wear peace like
a gauzy veil of
muted colors
beautiful
fragile
and we create tiny
pinpricks of anger
and discord that threaten
to rend it to pieces
yet somehow
you manage to mend each hole
each troubled soul
weaving new colors
into the fabric of peace
