Life, though!
Everything appears to be a chaos.
Throughout her daily life.
She's feeling very lonely.
Within the thunderstorm of poverty.
Her heart is tired of imagining good things.
Her difficulties fall like rain.
Yet, she does not even have an umbrella.
Nobody cares.
Nobody has her back.
They painted her name, like an old worn wall.
The story of her life is painted with lies.
Because she is poor, she is subjected to disparaging remarks.
Life, though!
She is clearly drenched from the heavy rain.
She feels like disappearing.
But there is no place like home.
Where comfort reigns supreme.
She wants to be free.
From distress and deep thoughts.
Within her pondering heart.
One day, the storm will pass.
She will certainly glimpse the sunshine.
Her wishes may come true.

Violence Begets
"Any last words, cowboy?" "None you'd understand, sodbuster." "Funny. That's Marshall Sodbuster to you. But I meant some last nugget that would help us in the adjudication of the myriad offenses counted against you and your gang. I wasn't asking for penitence."

Very touching! How are you my dear?
She is clearly drenched from the heavy rain. She feels like disappearing. This stuck out to me. we grouse, though so many don't have enough to cover themselves. Resounding, Gloria.
That is a very hopeful ending for her. Hopefully it comes fast. Loved your poem! How have you been Gloria?
